member this.Children : System.Windows.Controls.UIElementCollection
Public ReadOnly Property Children As UIElementCollection
Property Value
A UIElementCollection. The default is an empty UIElementCollection.
Examples
The following code example demonstrates how to use the Children property to add a UIElement child to a Panel element.
StackPanel myStackPanel = new StackPanel();
Button myButton = new Button();
myButton.Content = "Press me";
myStackPanel.Children.Add(myButton);
Dim myStackPanel As New StackPanel()
Dim myButton As New Button()
myButton.Content = "Press me"
myStackPanel.Children.Add(myButton)
Remarks
The Children collection of a Panel element can only consist of UIElement objects. Adding a UIElement child to a Panel implicitly adds it to the UIElementCollection for the Panel element.
Do not use this collection with derived Panel classes; use the InternalChildren collection instead.
This property returns null
if the Panel is data bound.
