UWP: Problem when trying to change the background color of a ListView item-CodePudding

I have a uwp desktop application with a listview in which I need to change the background color of items whose given value is empty. I've already done everything indicated by the answer to the question below, but the color doesn't change. Any help is most welcome.

CodePudding user response：

Please remove the ListView.ItemContainerStyle that you defined in the ListView. It overrides the style that you defined in the StyleSelector. Just put the HorizontalContentAlignment setting in the styles in the SpeechLineListViewStyleSelector.

Like:

 <Style x:Key="SpeechLineTimingSet" TargetType="ListViewItem">
        <Setter Property="Background" Value="Transparent" />
        <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Stretch" />
    </Style>

    <Style x:Key="SpeechLineTimingNotSet" TargetType="ListViewItem">
        <Setter Property="Background" Value="Red" />
        <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Stretch" />
    </Style>
