At a TreeView, I have the following Resources to keep the item selected when Focus is lost.
<TreeView.Resources>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type TreeViewItem}">
<Style.Resources>
<!-- SelectedItem with focus -->
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}"
Opacity=".8"
Color="DodgerBlue" />
<!-- SelectedItem without focus -->
<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.ControlBrushKey}"
Opacity=".3"
Color="DodgerBlue" />
</Style.Resources>
</Style>
</TreeView.Resources>
But I also have a template in a resource dictionary that I use to get a FullRowSelect style. It is from LeeCampbells Article here: Horizontal stretch on TreeViewItems
<Style BasedOn="{StaticResource {x:Type TreeViewItem}}" TargetType="TreeViewItem">
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Center" />
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="TreeViewItem">
<StackPanel>
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" MinWidth="19" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
<RowDefinition />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>

At the moment I do not seem to be able to combine those two. Perhaps it's already too late here.
Where should I put the style in the template to have FullRowSelect and keep the selection when focus is lost?
Remove the
<Style>tags around the two color brush definitions... in other words, make the color brushes directResourcesof theTreeViewrather than wrapped inside of aStyle.
