    <p>I'm trying to create a button-like UserControl which consists of a border and a label. When adding this UserControl directly in the XAML of MainWindow, it renders correctly (it is put in a WrapPanel), but if I add it programmatically it doesn't look the same at all. There is no border, no background color, the text size of the label is wrong and so is the text color.</p> <p>This is my user control:</p> <pre><code>&lt;UserControl x:Class="Jishi.SonosPartyMode.UserControls.Player" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" mc:Ignorable="d" d:DesignHeight="150" d:DesignWidth="300" Width="200" Height="100"&gt; &lt;Border BorderBrush="#086EAA" CornerRadius="8,8,8,8" BorderThickness="4" Margin="15" Padding="15px" VerticalAlignment="Center" Background="#0A4069"&gt; &lt;Label Name="PlayerName" TextElement.Foreground="White" TextElement.FontSize="20px"&gt;asdasdasd&lt;/Label&gt; &lt;/Border&gt; &lt;/UserControl&gt; </code></pre> <p>when adding it, I just invoke it like this:</p> <pre><code>var button = new Player { Content = player.Properties.RoomName, DataContext = player.Properties.UDN }; PlayerList.Children.Add( button ); </code></pre> <p>PlayerList is the actual WrapPanel and Player is my UserControl. I have tried finding information regarding this, but I don't find anything. If you have another approach that I can take, please come with suggestions. All I want is a clickable area with some rounded corners that can contain text (one or more rows).</p> <p>I can apply styles programatically, but the styles defined in the xaml for the UserControl isn't preserved (Border, Margins, colors etc).</p>

    1. CONot to sound critical, but why not just use a Button with a TextBlock as its content, as that would be what you said you want?

    2. COI'm a total newbie in WPF so any suggestions are welcome. How would I solve the CornerRadius with a button? I need to wrap it with a Border, doesn't I?

    3. COYeah, that's simple. All you need to do is create a style for your buttons that includes setting the template to a Custom ControlTemplate. In that ControlTemplate, you have a Border that defines the shape of the control. See [here](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms753328.aspx) for an example. With this example you can set the CornerRadius of the Border to whatever you want. You can also customize colors, etc.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
