Padding via Style -> Setter does not apply

If you specify the element itself, then everything works

<TextBlock Style="{StaticResource expanderTextBlockStyle}" Padding="10 0" ....

A lot of TextBlock elements, so I apply styles like this:

 <Style x:Key="expanderTextBlockStyle"> <Setter Property="Control.Padding" Value="10 0"></Setter> <Setter Property="Control.FontWeight" Value="Normal"></Setter> <Setter Property="Control.FontSize" Value="14"></Setter> </Style>

The FontSize and FontWeight properties work, but Padding does not!

Tell me what am I doing wrong?

    TextBlock not a Control successor. Specify in the style of TargetType="TextBlock" and set the setter just Property="Padding" - Andrey NOP

TextBlock is not a Control successor. Specify in the style of TargetType = "TextBlock" and set the setter just Property = "Padding"
