Creates an element tree of elements. FrameworkTemplate is a base class for classes that have specific templating behavior, including ControlTemplate and DataTemplate.

Remarks
FrameworkTemplate has a ContentPropertyAttribute that indicates that its XAML content property is named "Template". FrameworkTemplate doesn't define a property of that name, nor do its derived types that have a practical usage (ControlTemplate, DataTemplate). The content of a FrameworkTemplate is a root element that should be created when the template is applied to the object being templated, and isn't a conventional property in the object model. Content of a FrameworkTemplate is handled specially by the XAML parser when content is created from a template.
For more info on how to use templates, see ControlTemplate and Quickstart: Control templates.
FrameworkTemplate derived classes
FrameworkTemplate is the parent class for several immediately derived classes that each define specific templating behavior. Here are some of the notable derived classes:
- ControlTemplate: this is used as the value of the Control.Template property, which defines the visuals of a control by applying the template. You almost always define a ControlTemplate as a XAML resource, using an implicit key TargetType that is the same as a Style that sets Control.Template with a Setter. You rarely if ever assign a value for Control.Template directly on a control instance.
- DataTemplate: specifies the visual representation of your data when it's supplying items for an items control, such as a ListView or GridView. A DataTemplate sets the ItemTemplate property for an items control. DataTemplate is also used for ContentControl.ContentTemplate and other control-specific data templating properties, such as various Header, HeaderTemplate, ContentTemplate and ItemTemplate properties on multiple classes.
- ItemsPanelTemplate: supports an alternative technique for representing data in the visuals of a control, by defining a layout container as well as parts within that container that present the data. ItemsPanelTemplate is used as the value of ItemsControl.ItemsPanel for items controls.
Constructors
FrameworkTemplate() |
Provides base class initialization behavior for FrameworkTemplate-derived classes. |
Properties
Dispatcher |
Gets the CoreDispatcher that this object is associated with. The CoreDispatcher represents a facility that can access the DependencyObject on the UI thread even if the code is initiated by a non-UI thread. (Inherited from DependencyObject) |
Methods
ClearValue(DependencyProperty) |
Clears the local value of a dependency property. (Inherited from DependencyObject) |
GetAnimationBaseValue(DependencyProperty) |
Returns any base value established for a dependency property, which would apply in cases where an animation is not active. (Inherited from DependencyObject) |
GetValue(DependencyProperty) |
Returns the current effective value of a dependency property from a DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject) |
ReadLocalValue(DependencyProperty) |
Returns the local value of a dependency property, if a local value is set. (Inherited from DependencyObject) |
RegisterPropertyChangedCallback(DependencyProperty, DependencyPropertyChangedCallback) |
Registers a notification function for listening to changes to a specific DependencyProperty on this DependencyObject instance. (Inherited from DependencyObject) |
SetValue(DependencyProperty, Object) |
Sets the local value of a dependency property on a DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject) |
UnregisterPropertyChangedCallback(DependencyProperty, Int64) |
Cancels a change notification that was previously registered by calling RegisterPropertyChangedCallback. (Inherited from DependencyObject) |
