WPF: Cannot set properties on property elements weirdness...
- by Willy
private TextBlock _caption = new TextBlock();
public TextBlock Caption
{
get { return _caption; }
set { _caption = value; }
}
<l:CustomPanel>
<l:CustomPanel.Caption Text="Caption text" FontSize="18" Foreground="White" />
</l:CustomPanel>
Gives me the following error:
Cannot set properties on property elements.
If I use:
<l:CustomPanel>
<l:CustomPanel.Caption>
<TextBlock Text="Caption text" FontSize="18" Foreground="White" />
</l:CustomPanel.Caption>
</l:CustomPanel>
My TextBlock shows up fine but it's nested inside another TextBlock like so, it even seems to add itself outside of the Caption property:
<l:CustomPanel>
<l:CustomPanel.Caption>
<TextBlock>
<InlineUIContainer>
<TextBlock Text="Caption text" FontSize="18" Foreground="White" />
</InlineUIContainer>
</TextBlock>
</l:CustomPanel.Caption>
<TextBlock>
<InlineUIContainer>
<TextBlock Text="Caption text" FontSize="18" Foreground="White" />
</InlineUIContainer>
</TextBlock>
</l:CustomPanel>
As you might have already guessed, what i'd like my code to do is to set my Caption property from XAML on a custom panel, if this is possible.
I've also tried the same code with a DependencyProperty to no avail.
So, anyone that can help me with this problem?
