Note: 1 In this program We will discuss how to set  three property in checkbox 

Code for Window4.xaml………………………….

<StackPanel Margin="10">

<Label FontWeight="Bold">Subject Options</Label>

<StackPanel Margin="10,5">

<CheckBox IsThreeState="True" Name="chkAll" Checked="chkAll_Checked"  >Enable all</CheckBox>

<StackPanel Margin="20,5">

<CheckBox Name="chk1" >.Net</CheckBox>

<CheckBox Name="chk2" >Java</CheckBox>

<!--Unchecked............-->

<CheckBox Name="chk3" IsChecked="True">Php</CheckBox>

<!--Trist ate Indeterminate-->

<CheckBox Name="chk4" IsChecked="{x:Null}">Android</CheckBox>

</StackPanel>

</StackPanel>

</StackPanel>

public partial class CheckBoxControl : Window

{

public CheckBoxControl()

{

InitializeComponent();

}

private void chkAll_Checked(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)

{

bool t = (chkAll.IsChecked == true);

chk1.IsChecked = t;

chk2.IsChecked = t;

chk3.IsChecked = t;

chk4.IsChecked = t;

}

}

Result:
