When MahApps/MahApps.Metro#4022 is merged we need to update the docs. Additionally the docs should provide more info on how to create a custom data template. See: MahApps/MahApps.Metro#4023

@punker76 You can assign me, I will do the updates once the PR is merged.

Happy coding

Hello! It looks like that MetroFlatButton moved or got name change treatment since 2.0.0 alpha version. What is new way to reference it?

This is what i'm using now:

BasedOn="{StaticResource MetroFlatButton}"

I am using MahApps.Metro, v1.6.5.

MetroWindow with mah:DialogParticipation.Register="{Binding}" doesn't get disposed after the ShowDialog() call.

Example usage: I have two windows - MainWindow and MyDialogView. Each has it's own view model - MainWindowViewModel and MyDialogViewModel.
MainWindowViewModel contains a OpenDialogCommand, which opens the dialog view.
MyDialogViewModel contains a CloseCommand, which raises an OnClose event. The MainWindowViewModel handles the OnClose event and closes the dialog window.

For easier debugging I instantiate a large byte array in the MyDialogViewModel constructor. If I open and close the dialog window multiple times the memory usage only increases (by 1GB). But if I remove the DialogParticipation.Register parameter, then the memory usage gets decreased when the garbage collector runs.

I prepared an example here

I'm migrating my .NET 4.7.2 WPF application using MahApps.Metro 1.6.5 to .NET Core 3.0 using MahApp.Metro 2.0.0-alpha0531 and some of my styles that were working fine simply break at runtime with the newest version.

• MetroListBox style is not referenced anymore thus break the styling of my ListBox.
• The same goes for MetroListBoxItem.
• AccentedSquareButtonStyle style does not exist anymore and break the styling of my Buttons.
• SearchMetroTextBox style does not exist anymore and break the styling of my TextBox.

I've carefullly watched the documentation and searched for those missing styles but couldn't find any equivalent/migration guide for these particular components.

I followed the Mahapps Quick start guide to code my first Mahapps.Metro WPF application. Using v2.0.0 alpha.

`<Controls:MetroWindow x:Class="MahAppsMetroSample.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:Controls="http://metro.mahapps.com/winfx/xaml/controls"
xmlns:iconPacks="http://metro.mahapps.com/winfx/xaml/iconpacks"
Title="DeepSense"
GlowBrush="{DynamicResource AccentColorBrush}"
WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen">

<Controls:MetroWindow.RightWindowCommands>
    <Controls:WindowCommands>
        <Button Content="settings" />
        <Button>
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                <iconPacks:PackIconModern Width="24" Height="24" Kind="FoodCupcake" />
                <TextBlock Margin="4 0 0 0" VerticalAlignment="Center" Text="deploy cupcakes" />
            </StackPanel>
        </Button>
    </Controls:WindowCommands>
</Controls:MetroWindow.RightWindowCommands>

<Grid>
</Grid>

</Controls:MetroWindow>`

The GlowBrush="{DynamicResource AccentColorBrush}" seems unresolved. Is there any reference I have skipped? Unable to troubleshoot, help is appreciated.

Thanks

The ThemeManager can be overridden to customize the Theme generation. This should be documented.

The question is: here or at ControlzEx?

I used MahApps.Metro.ThemeManager.AddAccent in my project to add custom accents. How do I do the same thing now since ThemeManager in MahApps.Metro has been removed in 2.0? I looked for documentation on this but was not able to find anything useful.
