<fe:AdvancedFrame Corners="left" CornerRadius="10" InnerBackground="Blue" OutlineColor="Red" >
	<Label Text="Corners is left, CornerRadius is 10, InnerBackground is Blue" TextColor="White"/>
</fe:AdvancedFrame>

<fe:SegmentedButtonGroup OnColor="Blue" OffColor="White" SelectedIndex="{Binding SelectIndex, Mode=TwoWay}">
	<fe:SegmentedButtonGroup.LabelStyle>
		<Style TargetType="Label">
		    <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="12" />
			<Setter Property="FontAttributes" Value="Bold" />
