One example for toolTips :
<ControlTemplate x:Key="ValidationToolTipTemplate">
<Grid x:Name="Root"
Margin="5,0"
Opacity="0"
RenderTransformOrigin="0,0">
<Grid.RenderTransform>
<TranslateTransform x:Name="xform" X="-25" />
</Grid.RenderTransform>
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="OpenStates">
<VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
<VisualTransition GeneratedDuration="0" />
<VisualTransition GeneratedDuration="0:0:0.2" To="Open">
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Duration="0:0:0.2"
Storyboard.TargetName="xform"
Storyboard.TargetProperty="X"
To="0">
<DoubleAnimation.EasingFunction>
<BackEase Amplitude=".3" EasingMode="EaseOut" />
</DoubleAnimation.EasingFunction>
</DoubleAnimation>
<DoubleAnimation Duration="0:0:0.2"
Storyboard.TargetName="Root"
Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity"
To="1" />
</Storyboard>
</VisualTransition>
</VisualStateGroup.Transitions>
<VisualState x:Name="Closed">
<Storyboard>
<DoubleAnimation Duration="0"
Storyboard.TargetName="Root"

</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Open">

<DoubleAnimation Duration="0"
Storyboard.TargetName="Root"
Storyboard.TargetProperty="Opacity"
To="1" />
</Storyboard>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>

<TextBlock MaxWidth="250"
Margin="8,4,8,4"
Style="{StaticResource TextBlockStyle_Light}"
Text="{Binding (Validation.Errors)[0].ErrorContent}"
