WPF StackPanel

The StackPanel is a layout control that allows you to organize controls one beside the other or one below the other. You can select the orientation by using the Orientation attribute on the element. Many other controls use the StackPanel internally to layout controls like the Menu, ComboBox or ListBox.

Below you can check a simple example:

    
        
            One
            Two
            Three
            Four
            Five
        
    

Horizontal Stacking

If you want to stack the items inside the panel horizontally, you just have to set the Orientation attribute in the element to Horizontal like in the sample below:

    
        
            One
            Two
            Three
            Four
            Five
        
    

Add padding to the StackPanel

If you want to add some padding to StackPanel, you can combine it with the Border control and then add the padding to the Border element as shown in the XAML markup below:

    
        
        
            One
            Two
            Three
            Four
            Five
