How to make a globally available style WITHOUT App.xaml

Question

I have a class library I am creating for an AutoCAD plugin that includes WPF control elements. I would like to add a theme to these elements, so I added the WPFThemes.DarkBlend package from Nuget.

To property utilize the theme, you are supposed to add the style reference to your App.xaml file like so:

<Application
...
<Application.Resources>
    <ResourceDictionary>
        <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
            <ResourceDictionary Source="Themes\Styles.xaml” />
        </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
    </ResourceDictionary>
</Application.Resources>

Now unfortunately, because this is only a class library, I do not have an App.xaml file in which to add this code. I am able to use my Window.Resources, but in doing so, I am afraid that the styles in the reference are not exposed to the Window element. Is this because the Window is not within the scope of its own resources? Below is an image that shows my current situation:

Thank you!

在名为“DarkWindow”的样式中创建x：Key后，我发现我能够直接在PluginWindow.xaml窗口属性中应用样式，如下所示：

<Window Style="{DynamicResource DarkWindow}" />
