Storyboard control template, set value in another control inside the same template

I am sure that the problem can be solved in several ways, but in these situations I usually do the attached behavior. But so far the situation is not quite normal, because a control template has been implemented. In any case, I think that the applied behavior is suitable for this case, in your place I would do that.
