I'm guessing this is probably an easy mistake I am making somewhere. I have a custom control, stripped down to the basics:
<local:CustomUserControl x:Class="Test.UI.CustomUserControl"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Test.UI"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="300" d:DesignWidth="300"
IsEnabled="True" Loaded="CustomUserControl_Loaded">
<!-- Main border -->
<Border BorderBrush="#9B000000" BorderThickness="1" Margin="0,0,0,0" Padding="0">
<Grid Margin="0" Name="outerGrid">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid Margin="0" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" Name="innerGrid">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<!-- Backgound -->
<Rectangle Fill="#FF5B87B8" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Name="headerRectangle" PreviewMouseLeftButtonUp ="headerRectangle_MouseLeftButtonUp" />
<!-- Text -->
<Label Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" HorizontalContentAlignment="Left" VerticalContentAlignment="Center" Name="HeaderLabel" Content="Hello" Margin="5,0,0,0" Foreground="White" FontSize="18" Background="#FF5B87B8" PreviewMouseLeftButtonUp ="HeaderLabel_MouseLeftButtonUp" />
</Grid>
<!-- Content -->
<ContentPresenter Name="MainContent" Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0" Content="{Binding Content}" />
</Grid>
</Border>
</local:CustomUserControl>
When displaying on the form, like the following, it draws a box, with a shaded top, with white text:
<ui:CustomUserControl Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="2" Name="borderDiagram" Header="Hello" />
But, if I try and add content to the ContentPresenter:
<ui:CustomUserControl Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="2" Name="borderDiagram" Header="Hello">
<Label Content="Um..." />
</ui:CustomUserControl >
It overrides the entire custom control, leaving only the 'Um...' label.
I presume I am managing to override the entire control when I set the content, so how does one ensure that it's the ContentPresenter that takes the content, rather than the parent control?
