Absolutely feasible! WPF’s greatest strength lies in its fully customizable control templates—you can tweak nearly every aspect of the ComboBox’s appearance to match your target design, including integrating your existing autocomplete logic with the new visual style, adjusting the dropdown panel layout, and styling individual list items.

Here’s a practical breakdown of how to approach this:

1. Core Approach: Customize the ComboBox ControlTemplate #

The default ComboBox template is just a starting point. You’ll need to replace it with a custom template that aligns with your desired UI. Key elements to modify include:

• The input area (to keep your working autocomplete logic paired with the new visual style)
• The dropdown toggle button (to match your design’s icon/shape)
• The dropdown panel (to add a top-level search bar, adjust padding, or restructure item layout)
• Item templates (to style individual screen entries, e.g., add icons, custom highlight states)

2. Example Template Snippet #

Here’s a simplified example to get you started—this includes an integrated search box in the dropdown and a polished input area:

<Style TargetType="ComboBox" x:Key="SearchableComboBoxStyle">
    <Setter Property="Template">
        <Setter.Value>
            <ControlTemplate TargetType="ComboBox">
                <Grid>
                    <!-- Main input container with toggle button -->
                    <Border x:Name="RootBorder"
                            BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"
                            BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}"
                            Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"
                            CornerRadius="4">
                        <Grid>
                            <TextBox x:Name="PART_EditableTextBox"
                                     Text="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}, Path=Text, Mode=TwoWay}"
                                     VerticalAlignment="Center"
                                     Margin="8,4,32,4"
                                     BorderThickness="0"
                                     Background="Transparent"/>
                            <!-- Custom toggle button -->
                            <ToggleButton x:Name="PART_ToggleButton"
                                          Grid.Column="1"
                                          IsChecked="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}, Path=IsDropDownOpen, Mode=TwoWay}"
                                          HorizontalAlignment="Right"
                                          VerticalAlignment="Center"
                                          Margin="0,4,8,4"
                                          Style="{StaticResource ComboBoxToggleButtonStyle}"/>
                        </Grid>
                    </Border>

                    <!-- Custom dropdown popup -->
                    <Popup x:Name="PART_Popup"
                           IsOpen="{TemplateBinding IsDropDownOpen}"
                           Placement="Bottom"
                           AllowsTransparency="True"
                           PopupAnimation="Slide">
                        <Border x:Name="DropDownBorder"
                                Background="White"
                                BorderBrush="#E0E0E0"
                                BorderThickness="1"
                                CornerRadius="4"
                                Width="{TemplateBinding ActualWidth}"
                                Effect="{StaticResource DropShadowEffect}">
                            <Grid>
                                <!-- Dropdown search bar -->
                                <TextBox x:Name="DropDownSearchBox"
                                         Margin="8,8,8,4"
                                         PlaceholderText="搜索界面..."
                                         TextChanged="DropDownSearchBox_TextChanged"/>
                                <!-- Scrollable item list -->
                                <ScrollViewer Grid.Row="1" Margin="0,4,0,8" Padding="0">
                                    <ItemsPresenter />
                                </ScrollViewer>
                            </Grid>
                        </Border>
                    </Popup>
                </Grid>
                <!-- State triggers for hover/focus -->
                <ControlTemplate.Triggers>
                    <Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True">
                        <Setter TargetName="RootBorder" Property="BorderBrush" Value="#0078D7"/>
                    </Trigger>
                    <Trigger Property="IsFocused" Value="True">
                        <Setter TargetName="RootBorder" Property="BorderBrush" Value="#0078D7"/>
                        <Setter TargetName="RootBorder" Property="BorderThickness" Value="2"/>
                    </Trigger>
                </ControlTemplate.Triggers>
            </ControlTemplate>
        </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>
</Style>

3. Customize Individual List Items #

If your target design includes icons, custom highlight states, or grouped items, define an ItemTemplate for the ComboBox to style each entry:

<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
        <Grid Margin="4,2" Padding="4" x:Name="ItemGrid">
            <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
                <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
            </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
            <Image Source="{Binding ScreenIcon}" Width="16" Height="16" Margin="0,0,8,0"/>
            <TextBlock Grid.Column="1" Text="{Binding ScreenName}" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
        </Grid>
        <DataTemplate.Triggers>
            <Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True">
                <Setter TargetName="ItemGrid" Property="Background" Value="#F0F7FF"/>
            </Trigger>
            <Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="True">
                <Setter TargetName="ItemGrid" Property="Background" Value="#E1F0FF"/>
            </Trigger>
        </DataTemplate.Triggers>
    </DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>

4. Integrate Your Existing Autocomplete Logic #

Since you already have working autocomplete functionality, ensure your custom template binds correctly to the ComboBox’s Text property (via PART_EditableTextBox) and that your filtering logic connects to either the main input or the dropdown search box (depending on where you want the search to trigger from).

Key Notes #

• Test all control states: Hover, focus, dropdown open/closed, disabled, and selected items to ensure visual consistency.
• Use StaticResource for reusable styles (like the toggle button or drop shadow) to keep your XAML clean and maintainable.
• If your target design has unique elements (e.g., grouped sections, custom scrollbars), extend the template to include those components—WPF’s flexibility lets you add any UI element you need.

With these steps, you can replicate almost any ComboBox style you want, matching your attached image exactly.
