Yes , you are right. Google results lots of links about it. I have made a research about that before asking the question. After research, I have tried the way of this link: http://www.kunal-chowdhury.com/2011/04/how-to-create-custom-control-in.html[^]

But It does not let us to define the template of a different library.
<pre lang="HTML"> <Style TargetType="local:myLibraryControl">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="local:myLibraryControl">

</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style></pre>
I can not declare my template between Control Template tags. It gives me the error which says:
<pre lang="text">The property visual tree does not support values of type.</pre>
