Question

I have found a class of Label which adds the functionality of dragging and resizing the Label to it. And I don’t know how I can dynamically (like by pressing a button which says “create a label”) create an object of that class and add it to the Canvas of my WPF application.

I also want to specify some of it’s properties like width, height, name, content etc. before/after adding it to the Canvas.

How is it done the proper way ?

Answer 1

   //adding new MyLabel(class of Label)
   MyLabel lbl = new MyLabel();
   lbl.Text = "test text";
   lbl.Height = 27;
   lbl.Name="testLabel";
   canvas.Children.Add(lbl);
