XAML Values
oneOrMoreChildren
One or more objects elements for classes that derive from UIElement.panelobject
Object element (opening and closing tags) for a class that derives from Panel. Typically this is one of the panels defined by Silverlight, such as Canvas, Grid, or StackPanel.
The UIElementCollection type exposes the following members.
Properties
Name | Description | |
---|---|---|
Count | Gets the number of elements contained in the PresentationFrameworkCollection<T>. (Inherited from PresentationFrameworkCollection<T>.) | |
Dispatcher | Gets the Dispatcher this object is associated with. (Inherited from DependencyObject.) | |
IsFixedSize | Gets a value indicating whether the PresentationFrameworkCollection<T> has a fixed size. (Inherited from PresentationFrameworkCollection<T>.) | |
IsReadOnly | Gets a value indicating whether the PresentationFrameworkCollection<T> is read-only. (Inherited from PresentationFrameworkCollection<T>.) | |
IsSynchronized | Gets a value indicating whether access to the PresentationFrameworkCollection<T> is synchronized (thread safe). (Inherited from PresentationFrameworkCollection<T>.) | |
Item | Gets or sets the element at the specified index. (Inherited from PresentationFrameworkCollection<T>.) | |
SyncRoot | Gets an object that can be used to synchronize access to the PresentationFrameworkCollection<T> . (Inherited from PresentationFrameworkCollection<T>.) |

Remarks
UIElementCollection provides the collection support for Children.
The XAML syntax shown is the XAML implicit collection syntax for populating items in the UIElementCollection held by the Panel.Children property. Panel.Children is not literally shown in the syntax because Panel.Children is the content property for any element of a practical "Panel" class that derives from Panel. Therefore panelObject.Children can be omitted as a property element.
