WPF - selected unfocused color of ListViewItem with a GridView

Question

I'm trying to change the default light gray highlight on a selected ListViewItem to be the blue highlight that shows up when the ListView is focused. I've been trying to reconcile different StackOverflow answers and sources online, but I haven't figured out what kind of XAML I need yet. I have the following:

<ListView ItemContainerStyle="{StaticResource checkableListViewItem}"
          SelectionMode="Multiple"
          View="{StaticResource fieldValueGridView}"/>

The referenced View resource is:

<GridView x:Key="fieldValueGridView" AllowsColumnReorder="False">
    <GridViewColumn Header="Field">
        <GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
            <DataTemplate>
                <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                    <TextBlock FontWeight="Bold" Text="{Binding Path=DisplayName}"/>
                    <TextBlock FontWeight="Bold" Text=": "/>
                </StackPanel>
            </DataTemplate>
        </GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
    </GridViewColumn>
    <GridViewColumn Header="Value" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Path=FieldValue}"/>
</GridView>

And the referenced ItemContainerStyle resource is:

<Style TargetType="ListViewItem" BasedOn="{StaticResource {x:Type ListViewItem}}"
       x:Key="checkableListViewItem">
    <Setter Property="IsSelected" Value="{Binding Path=IsChecked}" />
    <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Stretch" />
    <Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Top" />
</Style>

The ListView's IsEnabled property does change, if that matters. I wanted to somehow incorporate <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.ControlBrushKey}" Color="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightColor}"/>, or something similar, to highlight selected ListViewItems that are in an unfocused ListView.

I have the following style, but this does not seem to affect ListViewItems in my ListView, and I thought the GridView that I'm using might be the reason. When I tried to override the Template property, the View property got ignored so my GridView wasn't being displayed.

<Style TargetType="ListViewItem">
    <Style.Resources>
        <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.ControlBrushKey}"
                         Color="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightColor}"/>
    </Style.Resources>
</Style>

How do I highlight in blue the selected items in my ListView when that ListView is unfocused?

Answer 1

This will work for a ListView that doesn't have a GridView

<Style TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
    <Style.Resources>
        <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.ControlBrushKey}" 
                         Color="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.HighlightColorKey}}"/>
    </Style.Resources>
</Style>

Update
1.Without re-templating when using GridView

<LinearGradientBrush x:Key="ListItemSelectedFill" EndPoint="0,1" StartPoint="0,0">
    <GradientStop Color="#FFD9F4FF" Offset="0"/>
    <GradientStop Color="#FF9BDDFB" Offset="1"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>

<Style TargetType="ListViewItem" x:Key="checkableListViewItem">
    <Setter Property="IsSelected" Value="{Binding Path=IsChecked}" />
    <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Stretch" />
    <Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Top" />
    <Style.Triggers>
        <Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="True">
            <Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource ListItemSelectedFill}" />
            <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="#FF98DDFB" />
        </Trigger>
        <!-- Or if you want to choose another color for unfocused
        <MultiTrigger>
            <MultiTrigger.Conditions>
                <Condition Property="IsSelected" Value="True" />
                <Condition Property="Selector.IsSelectionActive" Value="False" />
            </MultiTrigger.Conditions>
            <Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource ListItemSelectedFill}" />
            <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="#FF98DDFB" />
        </MultiTrigger>
        -->
    </Style.Triggers>
</Style>

2. Re-templating the ListViewItem when using GridView.

<LinearGradientBrush x:Key="ListItemHoverFill" EndPoint="0,1" StartPoint="0,0">
    <GradientStop Color="#FFF1FBFF" Offset="0"/>
    <GradientStop Color="#FFD5F1FE" Offset="1"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>
<LinearGradientBrush x:Key="ListItemSelectedFill" EndPoint="0,1" StartPoint="0,0">
    <GradientStop Color="#FFD9F4FF" Offset="0"/>
    <GradientStop Color="#FF9BDDFB" Offset="1"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>
<LinearGradientBrush x:Key="ListItemSelectedInactiveFill" EndPoint="0,1" StartPoint="0,0">
    <GradientStop Color="#FFEEEDED" Offset="0"/>
    <GradientStop Color="#FFDDDDDD" Offset="1"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>
<LinearGradientBrush x:Key="ListItemSelectedHoverFill" EndPoint="0,1" StartPoint="0,0">
    <GradientStop Color="#FFEAF9FF" Offset="0"/>
    <GradientStop Color="#FFC9EDFD" Offset="1"/>
</LinearGradientBrush>

<Style TargetType="ListViewItem" x:Key="checkableListViewItem">
    <Setter Property="IsSelected" Value="{Binding Path=IsChecked}" />
    <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Stretch" />
    <Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Top" />
    <Setter Property="Template">
        <Setter.Value>
            <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
                <Border CornerRadius="2" SnapsToDevicePixels="True" 
                        BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}"  
                        BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"  
                        Background="{TemplateBinding Background}">
                    <Border Name="InnerBorder" CornerRadius="1" BorderThickness="1">
                        <Grid>
                            <Grid.RowDefinitions>
                                <RowDefinition MaxHeight="11" />
                                <RowDefinition />
                            </Grid.RowDefinitions>

                            <Rectangle Name="UpperHighlight" Visibility="Collapsed" Fill="#75FFFFFF" />
                            <GridViewRowPresenter Grid.RowSpan="2"  
                                                    VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"  
                                                    SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding SnapsToDevicePixels}" />
                        </Grid>
                    </Border>

                        <Setter TargetName="InnerBorder" Property="BorderBrush" Value="#80FFFFFF" />
