Defining the Content of a UI

The Content attribute of a UI contains the visual aspect of the UI and is based on a tree of visual primitives, or view items, with standard data binding mechanisms. For example, the following Content attribute defines a panel layout container:

  <UI Name="SimpleUI">
    <Content>
      <Panel Layout="VerticalFlow">
        <Children>
          <Text Content="This is a panel layout with a vertical flow." Color="Red" Font="Tahoma,16" />
          <Text Content="It contains two text children." Color="Blue" Font="Verdana,22" />
        </Children>
      </Panel>
    </Content>
  </UI>

For more information about the view items you can use, see Working with View Items.
