Classes for UI Element Management (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

This section describes the classes that you can use for UI elements in Silverlight for Windows Embedded.

These include base classes for elements, classes for controls, and classes for panels and shapes.

You can use these classes to access and modify pre-existing named elements at run time that were parsed from the source XAML that defines the application UI. Or, you can use these classes to create new objects and custom controls for your Silverlight–based UI and add them to the visual tree.
