Question

I have this XAML code block:

    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
        <TextBlock Text="Hello " />
        <TextBlock Text="World" />
    </StackPanel>

I would like to define this block (for example in /Common/CustomStyles.xaml) to include it on different XAML pages. How does it work?

I do not need a DataTemplate or something similar because the text is static.

You could put it in a user control and re-use it that way. If it’s just the text you are interested in then you could use a resource file – this would update the textbox on any screen as long as it had the right uid.
