StatusBar Item height and sizing

[FireEmerald]

WpfExpressionBlendTheme/DarkBlendTheme/Themes/Styles.xaml

Line 2456 in 5d1d00f

<Setter Property="Height" Value="18"/>

This setter leads to a fixed height of the status bar, which means if the inner element is larger, the item is cut off. To test this replace:

WpfExpressionBlendTheme/DarkBlendTheme/MainWindow.xaml

Line 742 in 5d1d00f

<StatusBarItem>Ready</StatusBarItem>

with <StatusBarItem><Label Content="Ready"></Label></StatusBarItem>.

You could either remove the setter line or replace Height with MinHeight.

Another issue is that the FontSize of a StatusBarItem does not scale with the windows FontSize if you append to <Window ... FontSize="16". Any idea why? (Edit: Seems like this kicks in...)

I'll briefly check this tomorrow, but generally I'm too busy working on http://git-fork.com/windows.

It seems that you need to define FontSize within StatusBarItem ContentPresenter as {TemplateBinding FontSize}
