   NewButton.Content = "Button"
   
   'Set the Button Control's Width and Height properties
   NewButton.Width = 50
   NewButton.Height = [Double].NaN
   
   'Add the Button to the header
   C1HeaderedContentControl1.Header = (NewButton)
   

   C#

   //Create the Button control
   Button NewButton = new Button();
   
   NewButton.Content = "Button";
     
   //Set the Button Control's Width and Height properties
   NewButton.Width = 50;
