Learn how to subclass StackPanel to override the logical tree and enforce a behavior that the panel may only have and will only render a single child element. |
Although it is not necessary in most cases, advanced control authors have the option to override the logical tree.
This example describes how to subclass xref:System.Windows.Controls.StackPanel to override the logical tree, in this case to enforce a behavior that the panel may only have and will only render a single child element. This isn't necessarily a practically desirable behavior, but is shown here as a means of illustrating the scenario for overriding an element's normal logical tree.
