MethodDescription
Adds a routed event handler for a specified routed event, adding the handler to the handler collection on the current element. Specify handledEventsToo as true to have the provided handler be invoked even if the event is handled elsewhere. (Inherited from )
Loads the relevant control template so that its parts can be referenced. (Inherited from )
Positions child objects and determines a size for a UIElement. Parent objects that implement custom layout for their child elements should call this method from their layout override implementations to form a recursive layout update. (Inherited from )
Provides the behavior for the Arrange pass of layout. Classes can override this method to define their own Arrange pass behavior. (Inherited from )
Cancels ongoing direct manipulation processing (system-defined panning/zooming) on any ScrollViewer parent that contains the current UIElement. (Inherited from )
Sets pointer capture to a UIElement.
Once captured, only the element that has capture will fire pointer-related events. (Inherited from )
Undoes the effects of the PrepareContainerForItemOverride method. (Inherited from )
Clears the local value of a dependency property. (Inherited from )
Returns the container for the item at the specified index within the ItemCollection. (Inherited from )
Returns the container corresponding to the specified item. (Inherited from )
Retrieves an object that has the specified identifier name. (Inherited from )
Enables a UIElement subclass to expose child elements that assist with resolving touch targeting. (Inherited from )
Attempts to set the focus on the control. (Inherited from )
Returns any base value established for a dependency property, which would apply in cases where an animation is not active. (Inherited from )
Returns the BindingExpression that represents the binding on the specified property. (Inherited from )
Creates or identifies the element that is used to display the given item. (Inherited from )
Retrieves the named element in the instantiated ControlTemplate visual tree. (Inherited from )
Returns the current effective value of a dependency property from a DependencyObject. (Inherited from )
When implemented in a derived class, enables per-state construction of a visual tree for a control template in code, rather than by loading XAML for all states at control startup. (Inherited from )
Returns the group header container that corresponds to the specified container element. (Inherited from )
Returns the index to the item that has the specified, generated container. (Inherited from )
Invalidates the arrange state (layout) for a UIElement. After the invalidation, the UIElement will have its layout updated, which will occur asynchronously. (Inherited from )
Invalidates the measurement state (layout) for a UIElement. (Inherited from )
Determines whether the specified item is (or is eligible to be) its own container. (Inherited from )
Returns the item that corresponds to the specified, generated container. (Inherited from )
Updates the DesiredSize of a UIElement. Typically, objects that implement custom layout for their layout children call this method from their own MeasureOverride implementations to form a recursive layout update. (Inherited from )
Provides the behavior for the Measure pass of the layout cycle. Classes can override this method to define their own Measure pass behavior. (Inherited from )
Invoked whenever application code or internal processes (such as a rebuilding layout pass) call ApplyTemplate. In simplest terms, this means the method is called just before a UI element displays in your app. Override this method to influence the default post-template logic of a class. (Inherited from )
When implemented in a derived class, returns class-specific AutomationPeer implementations for the Microsoft UI Automation infrastructure. (Inherited from )
Override this method to implement how layout and logic should behave when items are removed from
a class-specific content or children property. (Inherited from )

ComboBox presents a drop-down list of items a user can select from.Use a ComboBox to present a list of items that a user can select from. When the ComboBox is closed, it either displays the current selection or is empty if there is no selected item. When the ComboBox is open, it displays the list of selectable items. You can get or set the combo box's selected item by using the
property, and get or set the index of the selected item by using the
You populate the ComboBox by adding objects directly to the
collection or by binding the
property to a data source. Items added to the ComboBox
are wrapped in
containers.
ComboBox uses a
as its . Using a different panel as the ItemsPanel is not supported and might result in undesired behavior.
Control style and template
You can modify the default
to give the control a unique appearance. For information about modifying a control's style and template, see . The default style, template, and resources that define the look of the control are included in the generic.xaml file. For design purposes,
generic.xaml is available in the \(Program Files)\Windows Kits\10\DesignTime\CommonConfiguration\Neutral\UAP\&SDK version&\Generic folder from a Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) installation. Styles and resources from different versions of the SDK might have different values.
Starting in Windows 10, version 1607 (Windows SDK version 10.0.14393.0), generic.xaml includes resources that you can use to modify the colors of a control in different visual states without modifying the control template. In apps that target this SDK or later, modifying these resources is preferred to setting properties such as
and . For more info, see the
section of the
