Namespace: MindFusion.UI.Wpf
Assembly: MindFusion.UI.Wpf

 Syntax

C#

public class Accordion : ItemsControl

Visual Basic

Public Class Accordion
    Inherits ItemsControl

 Remarks

Accordion is an ItemsControl, which means it can contain a collection of objects of any type (such as string, image, or panel). The items in the Accordion control can be expanded and collapsed. The AllowMultipleExpands property determines whether more than one item can be expanded at a time. The items in the Accordion control can display a header. To associate a header with an accordion item, use the Header attached property of the Accordion class.

 Example

The following code illustrates an Accordion control defined in XAML:

XAML

<ui:Accordion>
  <TextBlock Text="Hello world!" ui:Accordion.Header="A TextBlock as an item" />
  <ui:AccordionItem Header="A common accordion item">
    <ListBox>
      <ListBoxItem Content="Item #1" />
      <ListBoxItem Content="Item #2" />
      <ListBoxItem Content="Item #3" />
    </ListBox>
  </ui:AccordionItem>
  <ui:AccordionItem Header="An item with customized header" IsExpanded="True">
    <ui:AccordionItem.HeaderTemplate>
      <DataTemplate>
        <Border BorderBrush="Red" BorderThickness="1">
          <TextBlock Text="{Binding}" />
        </Border>
      </DataTemplate>
    </ui:AccordionItem.HeaderTemplate>
    <StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
      <RadioButton Content="Circle" />
      <RadioButton Content="Rectangle" IsChecked="True" />
      <RadioButton Content="Triangle" />
    </StackPanel>
  </ui:AccordionItem>
