Methods

	Name	Description
	AddHandler	Adds a routed event handler for a specified routed event, adding the handler to the handler collection on the current element. Specify handledEventsToo as true to have the provided handler be invoked for routed event that had already been marked as handled by another element along the event route. (Inherited from UIElement.)
	Arrange	Positions child objects and determines a size for a UIElement. Parent objects that implement custom layout for their child elements should call this method from their layout override implementations to form a recursive layout update. (Inherited from UIElement.)
	ArrangeOverride	Provides the behavior for the Arrange pass of Silverlight layout. Classes can override this method to define their own Arrange pass behavior. (Inherited from FrameworkElement.)
	CaptureMouse	Sets mouse capture to a UIElement. (Inherited from UIElement.)
	CheckAccess	Determines whether the calling thread has access to this object. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	ClearValue	Clears the local value of a dependency property. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	FindName	Retrieves an object that has the specified identifier name. (Inherited from FrameworkElement.)
	GetAnimationBaseValue	Returns any base value established for a Silverlight dependency property, which would apply in cases where an animation is not active. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)

	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetValue	Returns the current effective value of a dependency property from a DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	InvalidateArrange	Invalidates the arrange state (layout) for a UIElement. After the invalidation, the UIElement will have its layout updated, which will occur asynchronously. (Inherited from UIElement.)
	InvalidateMeasure	Invalidates the measurement state (layout) for a UIElement. (Inherited from UIElement.)

	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	OnApplyTemplate	When overridden in a derived class, is invoked whenever application code or internal processes (such as a rebuilding layout pass) call ApplyTemplate. In simplest terms, this means the method is called just before a UI element displays in an application. For more information, see Remarks. (Inherited from FrameworkElement.)
	OnCreateAutomationPeer	When implemented in a derived class, returns class-specific AutomationPeer implementations for the Silverlight automation infrastructure. (Inherited from UIElement.)

Remarks

The TextBlock control is the primary element for displaying text in Silverlight based applications. If you need to display caption for another control that includes required field or validation error indicators, use the Label control.

When you set text in a TextBlock, it is not necessary in XAML to explicitly specify the Text property. You can put text in the TextBlock container as its content, or inner text, as in the following example:

<TextBlock>Hello, world!</TextBlock>

Note:
Leading or trailing whitespace is not preserved when you set the Text property. For details on whitespace handling in XAML, see XAML Overview.

You can align the TextBlock within the layout of a parent container with the TextAlignment, HorizontalAlignment, and VerticalAlignment properties.

The Run and LineBreak objects can also be used to render formatted text, as child elements of a TextBlock in XAML (or as items of Inlines in code). The Run object is a text element that represents a discrete section of formatted or unformatted text. The LineBreak object represents an explicit new line in a TextBlock.

The default value of the FontSize property of a rendered TextBlock is 11 (measured in pixels).

The default value of the FontFamily property of a rendered TextBlock is "Portable User Interface". For more information on the "Portable User Interface" concept, see Text and Fonts.

TextBlock Text Model

Rather than presenting a single string, a TextBlock can also present a series of strings contained in different Run elements, where each element can have different character-level font attributes. The LineBreak object represents an explicit new line in a TextBlock, and is generally used between surrounding Run elements. LineBreak and Run share a base class (Inline), which makes it possible for a TextBlock to hold a strongly typed InlineCollection of its text model content. That InlineCollection is also the TextBlock XAML content property, and the end result is that to specify items in the TextBlock model you simply specify various Run and LineBreak elements as child elements of the TextBlock.

The following XAML example shows how to define several differently formatted text strings in a TextBlock by using Run objects, separated with LineBreak.

<!-- Display formatted text as Run objects within a TextBlock. -->
<Canvas>
<TextBlock
  FontFamily="Arial" Width="400" Text="Sample text formatting runs">
  <LineBreak/>
  <Run Foreground="Maroon" FontFamily="Courier New" FontSize="24">Courier New 24</Run>
  <LineBreak/>
  <Run Foreground="Teal" FontFamily="Times New Roman" FontSize="18" FontStyle="Italic">Times New Roman Italic 18</Run>
  <LineBreak/>
  <Run Foreground="SteelBlue" FontFamily="Verdana" FontSize="14" FontWeight="Bold">Verdana Bold 14</Run>
</TextBlock>
</Canvas>

The following illustration shows the rendered formatted text from the previous XAML content example.

TextBlock rendering multiple Run objects

Sample of text formatting runs.

LineBreak forces the text in each Run to display on a separate line. Without the LineBreak, the text in each Run would flow together as one line and would often be clipped due to exceeding the TextBlock object width or the width of the Silverlight content area. The following illustration shows how the formatted text would render without using LineBreak objects.

TextBlock rendering multiple Run objects without LineBreak objects

Sample text formatting runs.

Accessing the TextBlock Text Model in Code

There are really two properties involved in the TextBlock text model: Text, and Inlines. Changing the value of Text is not always advisable, because it can flatten any existing font element formatting on the individual Run items as well as strip the LineBreak elements for a TextBlock that was originally constructed with inlines and not just Text. For details, see Inlines.
