Why does my toggle switch look so bad?

created a day ago

I'm trying to put a dark-mode toggle switch in my title bar. When doing so with the VS2019 light theme (toggles to VS2019 dark), the square is totally black, it stands out like a sore thumb. Ideally, it would have (any other color that aligns with the theme). Ideally, I'd like to be able to round the corners of the middle-thing, but the documentation only shows the outside corner radius.

Do I have any options here?

XAML
<dxe:ToggleSwitchEdit
      Margin="{StaticResource DefaultRightMargin}"
      CornerRadius="5"
      IsChecked="{Binding ThemeDarkModeActive}" />
</dxc:ThemedWindow.HeaderItems>

Hello Greg,

You can use the SwitchThumbTemplate property to customize thumb appearance. On the property page, we shared a snippet that you can use as a starting point for your custom solution:Example.

Please let me know if this helps.

Regards,
Alexander
