title: Styles versus property inheritance
body: <p>I'm dealing with a WPF application where element-typed styles are defined for most basic controls (textbox and such like). I now have a control, in a control, in a control ... basically I have no way of directly altering the textbox properties, so I set the property (fontsize) in my control in the hope that this property would propagate to all children of the control. Unfortunately the element-typed style in taken in preference to my control property.  </p>
  
  <p>Is there any way of overriding these element-typed styles?</p>
