  31                     This example demonstrates how to alternate the appearance of items in a <span sdata="cer" target="T:System.Windows.Controls.ListBox">ListBox</span> and a <span sdata="cer" target="T:System.Windows.Controls.Treeview"><span class="nolink">Treeview</span></span> by using the <span sdata="cer" target="T:System.Windows.Controls.AlternationConverter">AlternationConverter</span> and the <span sdata="cer" target="P:System.Windows.Controls.ItemsControl.AlternationIndex">ItemsControl..::.AlternationIndex</span> attached property.  The <span sdata="cer" target="T:System.Windows.Controls.ListBox">ListBox</span> groups its items, and both the <span sdata="cer" target="T:System.Windows.Controls.GroupItem">GroupItem</span> headings and the items in the <span sdata="cer" target="T:System.Windows.Controls.ListBox">ListBox</span> have alternating appearances. You can alternate the appearance of the <span sdata="cer" target="T:System.Windows.Controls.GroupItem">GroupItem</span> heading and items in the <span sdata="cer" target="T:System.Windows.Controls.ListBox">ListBox</span> independently of each other.

  33                     The items in the <span sdata="cer" target="T:System.Windows.Controls.TreeView">TreeView</span> have a different appearance in each level of the <span sdata="cer" target="T:System.Windows.Controls.TreeView">TreeView</span>.  In the first level, all items are bold.  In the second level, the items alternate between italicized text and normal text.  In the third level, the backgrounds of the items alternate among three colors.
