We are using ThemeManager to add a light theme to our project. However Context menu (Long press menu) item color don't invert with LightTheme and are not visible.

The context menu control may be using the Visibility themes or resources with in it. Any updates on this issue from your end?

contextmenu background and systemtray foreground seems sucks.

I can confirm that the ThemeManager does not apply to ContextMenus - however, in my project I cannot confirm the screenshot from above: my contextmenu stays black with white fonts: contextmenu

Okay, I just walked through the source code of the ContextMenu from the Windows Phone Toolkit. In ContextMenu.cs you find the method SetDefaultStyle() which sets all relevant colours.

In conclusion, it is a "bug" in the Windows Phone Toolkit ;-) You now have three options:

  1. Open an issue in the Windows Phone Toolkit
  2. Update the XAML of the ContextMenu-control and build the toolkit yourself (you'll lose all NuGet features)
  3. Migrate to a Windows Phone Store app with XAML - there you'll find a Property RequestedTheme which can be set to Dark or Light.
