WPF Label Design - wpf

Question

I have a label in WPF which I want to restyle so it has rounded corners.
I have the below code already:
<Style TargetType="{x:Type Label}">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Red"/>
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="2,2,2,2"/>
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="2"/>
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Blue"/>
</Style>
Can anyone please assist with how I would add a corner Radius to this label
many thanks

Answer 1

You'll need to change the ControlTemplate for the Label in order to get rounded corners. The Label control itself doesn't expose a CornerRadius property.
Add the following to your Style and you'll get rounded edges on your Label. I arbitrarily set it to "3" below, but you can set it to whatever your needs dictate.
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Label}">
<Border BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"
BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}"
Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"
Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}"
SnapsToDevicePixels="true"
CornerRadius="3">
<ContentPresenter HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}" RecognizesAccessKey="True" SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding SnapsToDevicePixels}" VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"/>
</Border>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="false">
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.GrayTextBrushKey}}"/>
</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>

Using the Border element would be simpler.
<Border CornerRadius="10" BorderThickness="2" BorderBrush="Blue" Background="Red" Margin="2">
<Label Content="Lorem ipsum" />
</Border>
