# NavigationWindow Styles and Templates
This topic describes the styles and templates for the <xref:System.Windows.Navigation.NavigationWindow> control. You can modify the default <xref:System.Windows.Controls.ControlTemplate> to give the control a unique appearance. For more information, see [Create a template for a control](how-to-create-apply-template.md).  
  
## NavigationWindow Parts  
 The following table lists the named parts for the <xref:System.Windows.Navigation.NavigationWindow> control.  
  
|Part|Type|Description|  
|-|-|-|  
|PART_NavWinCP|<xref:System.Windows.Controls.ContentPresenter>|The area for the content.|  
  
## NavigationWindow States  
 The following table lists the visual states for the <xref:System.Windows.Navigation.NavigationWindow> control.  
  
|VisualState Name|VisualStateGroup Name|Description|  
|-|-|-|  
|Valid|ValidationStates|The control uses the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Validation> class and the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Validation.HasError%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> attached property is `false`.|  
|InvalidFocused|ValidationStates|The <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Validation.HasError%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> attached property is `true` has the control has focus.|  
|InvalidUnfocused|ValidationStates|The <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Validation.HasError%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType> attached property is `true` has the control does not have focus.|  
  
## NavigationWindow ControlTemplate Example  
 Although this example contains all of the elements that are defined in the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.ControlTemplate> of a <xref:System.Windows.Navigation.NavigationWindow> by default, the specific values should be thought of as examples.  
  
 [!code-xaml[ControlTemplateExamples#NavigationWindow](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Wpf/ControlTemplateExamples/CS/resources/navigationwindow.xaml#navigationwindow)]  
  
 The preceding example uses one or more of the following resources.  
  
 [!code-xaml[ControlTemplateExamples#ResizeGrip](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Wpf/ControlTemplateExamples/CS/resources/resizegrip.xaml#resizegrip)]  
[!code-xaml[ControlTemplateExamples#Resources](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Wpf/ControlTemplateExamples/CS/resources/shared.xaml#resources)]
