I am new to UWP and trying out. Please point me to links if its too basic. I am developing an Custom Control ( UWP Template Control ), with some Text box and Buttons. Ideally, I want to use this control in my MainPage as Header Control, depending on each button click in Templatecontrol, I want to render different pages. Now coming to basic question, How do I hookup the event handler in CustomControl This is my Generic.xaml: (Project1.Library)
<ResourceDictionary
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:local="using:UWP.CustomControls.Library">
<Style TargetType="local:MyCustomControl" >
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="local:MyCustomControl">
<Border
Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"
BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"
BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<TextBlock Text="{TemplateBinding FirstName}" Margin="8 8 2 8" />
<Button Content="Go!" Click="MyCustomControl_Click" />
</StackPanel>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
</ResourceDictionary>
MyCustomContro.cs:
public string FirstName
{
get { return (string)GetValue(FirstNameProperty); }
set { SetValue(FirstNameProperty, value); }
}
public static readonly DependencyProperty FirstNameProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("FirstName", typeof(string), typeof(MyCustomControl), new PropertyMetadata(string.Empty));
public event EventHandler Click;
MainPage.xaml: ( Project1)
<Grid Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">
<controls:MyCustomControl Width="400" Height="35" Background="Orange"
Margin="20" FirstName="MyFName" LastName="MyLName" Click="MyCustomControl_Click"/>
<Button Content="Show!" x:Name="Text1" />
</Grid>
Views, I want to access are available in Project1 and so I want to write code on MainPage.xaml.cs to load those Content or Frame.
