Remarks

You use GroupBox to represent a single object that defined in the Content property. To display a title to the GroupBox, you set the Header property to a string value that you desire.

The following example shows how to define a simple GroupBox in XAML.

XAML Copy Code 
<Intersoft:GroupBox Header="Likes and Interests"
                    Width="300" Height="200">
    
    <StackPanel VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
        <TextBlock Text="Content"/>
    </StackPanel>
    
</Intersoft:GroupBox>

GroupBox automatically measures the text width of the Header and draws a smooth round-corner 3D line around it, such as shown in the following figure.

 

You can customize many of the header settings and border appearance, add an image to the header, customize the header template and more. See GroupBox Overview to learn about these features.
