Content Model: The Content property and Header property of a HeaderedContentControl can be set to any type of object. For more information on the content model for HeaderedContentControl, see Controls Content Model Overview.

A HeaderedContentControl has a limited default style. An application developer can create a HeaderedContentControl, but its appearance will be very simple. If you wish to enhance the appearance of the control, you can create a new ControlTemplate. A HeaderedContentControl is useful for creating custom controls because it provides a model for single content controls with headers.

The following examples show how to create a ControlTemplate for a HeaderedContentControl.

<Style TargetType="HeaderedContentControl">
  <Setter Property="Template">
    <Setter.Value>
      <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type HeaderedContentControl}">
        <StackPanel>
          <Grid>
            <Rectangle Stroke="{TemplateBinding Background}"/>
            <ContentPresenter ContentSource="Header"/>
          </Grid>
          <Grid>
            <Rectangle Fill="{TemplateBinding Background}"/>
            <ContentPresenter ContentSource="Content"/>
          </Grid>
        </StackPanel>
      </ControlTemplate>
    </Setter.Value>
  </Setter>
</Style>

<HeaderedContentControl Background="LightBlue"
                        Header="Header"
                        Content="This is the content"/>
