WPF Template: AdornedElement not showing!
- by Tau Sick
I want to add some elements to a TextBox by using a Template with the extra elements and the original TextBox inserted in the right spot. I'm trying to use the AdornedElementPlaceholder just like you would do when making a Validation.ErrorTemplate But the AdornedElement is not showing up. I have simplified the example as much as possible:
<TextBox Text="Border me with my Template">
<TextBox.Template>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type TextBox}">
<Border BorderBrush="Green" BorderThickness="1">
<AdornedElementPlaceholder/>
</Border>
</ControlTemplate>
</TextBox.Template>
</TextBox>
The result is just a green box around the space that should be my textbox!
