Examples

The following example shows how to use the Orientation property to specify how elements within a StackPanel are stacked (one on top of the other or side by side).

<Page xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation">

  <!-- This StackPanel stacks two other StackPanels on top of each other. The
       first StackPanel stacks its items horizontally while the second stacks them
       vertically. -->
  <StackPanel>

    <!-- The items under this StackPanel are stacked horizontally. -->
    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
      <Border Background="SkyBlue">
        <TextBlock>Stacked Item #1</TextBlock>
      </Border>
      <Border Background="CadetBlue">
        <TextBlock>Stacked Item #2</TextBlock>
      </Border>
      <Border Background="LightGoldenRodYellow">
        <TextBlock>Stacked Item #3</TextBlock>
      </Border>
    </StackPanel>

    <!-- The items under this StackPanel are stacked Vertically. Note that Orientation 
         has a default value of "Vertical" but in this example the property is explicitely
         set for clarity. -->
    <StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
      <Border Background="SkyBlue">
        <TextBlock>Stacked Item #1</TextBlock>
      </Border>
      <Border Background="CadetBlue">
        <TextBlock>Stacked Item #2</TextBlock>
      </Border>
      <Border Background="LightGoldenRodYellow">
        <TextBlock >Stacked Item #3</TextBlock>
      </Border>
    </StackPanel>
  </StackPanel>
  
</Page>
