Remarks

You can embed a UIElement, such as a Button, directly in content by enclosing it in a InlineUIContainer. An InlineUIContainer cannot host more than one UIElement child. However, the child element hosted by an InlineUIContainer may host children of its own.

Examples

The following code example shows how you can insert an image into a RichTextBox by using InlineUIContainer.

Copy


//Insert an image into the RichTextBox
private void btnImage_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    InlineUIContainer container = new InlineUIContainer();

    container.Child = MainPage.createImageFromUri(new Uri("/RichNotepad;component/images/Desert.jpg", UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute), 200, 150);

    rtb.Selection.Insert(container);
    ReturnFocus();
}

private static Image createImageFromUri(Uri URI, double width, double height)
{
    Image img = new Image();
    img.Stretch = Stretch.Uniform;
    img.Width = width;
    img.Height = height;
    BitmapImage bi = new BitmapImage(URI);
    img.Source = bi;
    img.Tag = bi.UriSource.ToString();
    return img;
}
