WPF ScrollBar styles

Is it possible to create scrollbars like in this picture? enter image description here

This picture was taken from this link: http://codesdirectory.blogspot.be/2013/01/wpf-scrollviewer-control-style.html. I tried the example in the post but the result looked like this:enter image description here

The post is 3 years old so this may be normal.

Is it possible to create scrollbars like the first picture? I have been looking for hours to find a template and this is the closest I could get. I am converting a windows form app to a WPF and the main reason for that was the scrollbars! This is the xaml from the above pictures:

<Window x:Class="iBlock.MainWindow"

        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"

        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

        Title="WPF ScrollViewer" SizeToContent="WidthAndHeight">

    <Window.Resources>
        <ResourceDictionary>
            <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
                <ResourceDictionary Source="ScrollBar.xaml"></ResourceDictionary>
            </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
        </ResourceDictionary>
    </Window.Resources>

    <Grid>

        <ScrollViewer Background="#F7F7F7"

                      BorderBrush="#C7C7C7"

                      Height="300"

                      HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"

                      Margin="10"

                      Style="{DynamicResource ResourceKey=styleScrollViewer}"

                      VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"

                      Width="400">

            <StackPanel Background="Red" Height="400" Width="500"></StackPanel>

        </ScrollViewer>

    </Grid>

</Window>

How do I add a scrollbar in WPF?

How to enable scrollbar in a WPF TextBox. The simplest way to add scrolling functionality to a TextBox control is by enabling its horizontal and vertical scrolling. The HorizontalScrollBarVisibility and VerticalScrollBarVisibility properties are used to set horizontal and vertical scroll bars of a TextBox.
