BlockUIContainer Class
Visual Studio 2008
Namespace:
System.Windows.Documents
Assembly: PresentationFramework (in PresentationFramework.dll)

The following example shows how to use the BlockUIContainer elements to host UIElement elements within flow content.
<FlowDocument ColumnWidth="400"> <Section Background="GhostWhite"> <Paragraph> A UIElement element may be embedded directly in flow content by enclosing it in a BlockUIContainer element. </Paragraph> <BlockUIContainer> <Button>Click me!</Button> </BlockUIContainer> <Paragraph> The BlockUIContainer element may host no more than one top-level UIElement. However, other UIElements may be nested within the UIElement contained by an BlockUIContainer element. For example, a StackPanel can be used to host multiple UIElement elements within a BlockUIContainer element. </Paragraph> <BlockUIContainer> <StackPanel> <Label Foreground="Blue">Choose a value:</Label> <ComboBox> <ComboBoxItem IsSelected="True">a</ComboBoxItem> <ComboBoxItem>b</ComboBoxItem> <ComboBoxItem>c</ComboBoxItem> </ComboBox> <Label Foreground ="Red">Choose a value:</Label> <StackPanel> <RadioButton>x</RadioButton> <RadioButton>y</RadioButton> <RadioButton>z</RadioButton> </StackPanel> <Label>Enter a value:</Label> <TextBox> A text editor embedded in flow content. </TextBox> </StackPanel> </BlockUIContainer> </Section> </FlowDocument>
