The following example shows two RepeatButton controls whose respective Click events are used to increase and decrease the value shown in a TextBlock.
<StackPanel>
<RepeatButton Width="100" Delay="500" Interval="100" Click="Increase_Click">Increase</RepeatButton>
<RepeatButton Width="100" Delay="500" Interval="100" Click="Decrease_Click">Decrease</RepeatButton>
<TextBlock x:Name="clickTextBlock" Text="Number of Clicks:"/>
</StackPanel>private static int _clicks = 0;
private void Increase_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
_clicks += 1;
clickTextBlock.Text = "Number of Clicks: " + _clicks;
}
private void Decrease_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
if(_clicks > 0)
{
_clicks -= 1;
clickTextBlock.Text = "Number of Clicks: " + _clicks;
}
}
