panel

I have a simple usercontrol that uses a simple custom panel where I just overrode the Orientation and Measure functions.

What I want to do is to have a property in the usercontol to control the orientation

So I basicaly have UserControl --> Listbox --> MyPanel

And I want a property for the usercontrol that can be set in xaml (of type System.Windows.Controls.Orientation ) that I can bind to from my custom panel (or a different approach if binding isnt the right way to do it)

It would be a bonus if that property could show up in the properties window and you could select vertical or horizontal.

And a super bonus if I could change the property at design time and have the listbox/
