I am a developing a Windows Phone app. I can't find any properties to change the CheckMark Color for a CheckBox. How do I change the checkmark color for a checkbox?
Try this style and change Fill color in CheckIcon rectangle
<Style TargetType="CheckBox">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="#FF448DCA"/>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="#FF000000"/>
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Left"/>
<Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Top"/>
<Setter Property="Padding" Value="4,1,0,0"/>
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1"/>
<Setter Property="BorderBrush">

<LinearGradientBrush EndPoint="0.5,1" StartPoint="0.5,0">

Right click control in the designer -> Edit Style -> Edit a copy
Now you have the whole control style to tinker with. You can change literally everything. In the ContentPresenter part find Path control and the Fill property is what you want. Change it to whatever color you want and use this style with your control.
