Panel::Background Property
Visual Studio 2008
Updated: July 2009
Namespace:
System.Windows.Controls
Assembly: PresentationFramework (in PresentationFramework.dll)
Panel elements do not receive mouse or stylus events if a Background is not defined. If you need to handle mouse or stylus events but do not want a background for your Panel, use Transparent.
The following example sets the Background of a Grid to a RadialGradientBrush.
<Grid> <Grid.Background> <RadialGradientBrush GradientOrigin="0.5,0.5" Center="0.5,0.5" RadiusX="0.5" RadiusY="0.5"> <RadialGradientBrush.GradientStops> <GradientStop Color="Yellow" Offset="0" /> <GradientStop Color="Red" Offset="0.25" /> <GradientStop Color="Blue" Offset="0.75" /> <GradientStop Color="Green" Offset="1" /> </RadialGradientBrush.GradientStops> </RadialGradientBrush> </Grid.Background> </Grid>
Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP SP2, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2003
The .NET Framework and .NET Compact Framework do not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.
