It got me thinking. Could you use this technique to combine multiple styles into one neat style. For example, I have a handful of border styles for different areas in a project. At the moment I'm writing styles for each border. I use "BasedOn" to link all these to a "BorderBase" style, so things like margin and padding are consistent. I really like the idea of using tag to trigger these different versions from one new combined style. Are there any downfalls to this idea? Are there better ways to refine things a bit? Anyway... really enjoyed the post. Thanks much. This is very interesting. It got me thinking. Could you use this technique to combine multiple styles into one neat style.

Tnx for sharing! I also found a really interesting article with source code examples on using WPF in visualization cartographical objects.
