In XAML

To add a button control to the C1HeaderedContentControl's content panel in XAML, complete the following steps:

1. Place the following markup between the <c1:C1HeaderedContentControl> and </c1:C1HeaderedContentControl> tags:

   <Button Content="Click" Height="Auto" Width="Auto"/>
   

2. Run the program and then expand C1HeaderedContentControl.

In Code

To add a button control to the C1HeaderedContentControl's content panel in code, complete the following:

1. Add x:Name="C1HeaderedContentControl1" to the <c1:C1HeaderedContentControl> tag so that the control will have a unique identifier for you to call in code.

   Visual Basic

   'Create the Button control
   Dim ContentButton As New Button()
   ContentButton.Content = "Click"
   
   'Set the Button Control's Width and Height properties
   ContentButton.Width = Double.NaN
   ContentButton.Height = Double.NaN
   
   'Add the Button to the content panel
   C1HeaderedContentControl1.Content = (ContentButton)
   

   C#

             
   //Create the Button control
   Button ContentButton = new Button();
   ContentButton.Content = "Click";
   
   //Set the Button Control's Width and Height properties
   ContentButton.Width = double.NaN;
   ContentButton.Height = double.NaN;
   
   //Add the Button to the content panel
   C1HeaderedContentControl1.Content= (ContentButton);
