- Create a new project. Add a new item and then select user control.
- Then go to MyUserControl1.xaml and add
textblock and image from toolbox.
- Now, we want to give the control to the user using our custom control so he/she can change text and image. For that, go to MyUserControl1.xaml.cs and add a dependency property of type as of the '
text' property of textblock, i.e., string. In this case, set metadata to 'null'.
- Do the same for source of the image of the type '
ImageSource'.
-
Now, bind the respected properties with our dependency properties so they can be changed by the user.
-
Now, we can use our created custom control anywhere we like. And can change the text or image source to add any image.
-
Like this, we can give the desired control over our custom control to the user by binding them with our created dependency properties.
