Examples

The following example binds the Content property of a ContentPresenter to the SelectionBoxItem property. The ContentPresenter is part of the ControlTemplate for the ComboBox. For the complete sample, see Styling with ControlTemplates Sample.

XAML


<ContentPresenter x:Name="ContentSite"
                  IsHitTestVisible="False"
                  Content="{TemplateBinding SelectionBoxItem}"
                  ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding SelectionBoxItemTemplate}"
                  ContentTemplateSelector="{TemplateBinding ItemTemplateSelector}"
                  Margin="3,3,23,3"
