Padding Property

Description

Gets or sets a value that indicates the thickness of padding space between the boundaries of the content area and the content displayed by a MarkupTextBlock.

Property Type

Read-write property

Syntax (Visual Basic)

Public Property Padding() As MarkupThickness

Return Type

A MarkupThickness structure specifying the amount of padding to apply, in pixels.

Remarks

Padding can be described as uniform in all directions (e.g., Padding="15"), or as four distinct values that represent left, top, right, and bottom padding independently (e.g., Padding="15,10,15,10").

If a specified padding thickness exceeds the corresponding content area dimension, the thickness of the padding is proportionally reduced to be no greater than the relevant content area dimension.
