| Generate User Interface Programmatically |
I said one of XAML advantages is in its short code for
generating a UI. You can use programming languages to build your user
interface but should avoid it when you can use XAML markup. Listing 7 is the
code equivalent for Listing 1 and Listing 2. Obviously, you like to use XAML instead
of this approach, but sometimes it is necessary to do this via code. You can
use any .NET language to start coding for Windows Presentation Foundation.
Listing 7
private TextBox MyTextBox = new TextBox();
private Button btnClick = new Button();
private StackPanel stackPanel = new StackPanel();
public Window1()
{
// Create TextBox
this.MyTextBox.Width = 200;
this.MyTextBox.Height = 30;
this.MyTextBox.Margin = new Thickness(40);
this.MyTextBox.Name = "MyTextBox";
// Create Button
btnClick.Width = 60;
btnClick.Height = 20;
btnClick.Content = "Click me!";
btnClick.Click +=
new RoutedEventHandler(ButtonClickHandler);
// Layout Controls
this.stackPanel.Children.Add(MyTextBox);
this.stackPanel.Children.Add(btnClick);
this.Content = stackPanel;
}
void ButtonClickHandler(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show(string.Format
("You typed '{0}' in TextBox!", this.MyTextBox.Text), "XAML");
}
Note that this code does not generate a Window itself!

How to add rows programmatically!

OK, I found out, it was actually adding correctly, it was just that the container shrimped the grid so all rows became too narrow. I put the grid into a scroll container, and - voilá !

Just to make it clear: the label, labelEnglish and textBox are labels and textbox that are created and set content on before the code you see.

I want to be able to add lables and text boxes to the grid content programmatically. How do I do that? I tried with the following code, but it doesn't seem to work. grid (with lowercase g) is the grid object I am working with. Grid (with uppercase G) lets me run the static methods to set column and row number (I didn't find any other way to do this).
grid.RowDefinitions.Add(new RowDefinition()); grid.Children.Add(label); Grid.SetColumn(label, 0); Grid.SetRow(label, grid.RowDefinitions.Count - 1); grid.Children.Add(labelEnglish); Grid.SetColumn(labelEnglish, 1); Grid.SetRow(labelEnglish, grid.RowDefinitions.Count - 1); grid.Children.Add(textBox); Grid.SetColumn(textBox, 2); Grid.SetRow(textBox, grid.RowDefinitions.Count - 1);
