Expression Theme

Inspired by Microsoft Expression Blend with a sleek, designer-focused aesthetic.

---

Installation

dotnet add package Dirkster.AvalonDock.Themes.Expression

Usage

Expression Dark

using AvalonDock.Themes;

dockManager.Theme = new ExpressionDarkTheme();

Expression Light

dockManager.Theme = new ExpressionLightTheme();

Docking hints

Both variants draw the drop-target hints shown while a pane is dragged, using the PNG glyphs shipped in the package (Images/DockDocument*.png, Images/DockAnchorable*.png). Earlier releases declared the OverlayWindow template without those glyphs, so the hints were invisible and the centre “dock into” target had no clickable area.
