Borders

Borders frame your content. Literally. They make distinguishing individual items easier. PancakeView supports a wide variety of border options to play around with.

How to use

To get started with using borders we need to set the Border property to an instance of a Border object.

Using plain XAML

<yummy:PancakeView>
    <yummy:PancakeView.Border>
        <yummy:Border Color="#000000" Thickness="10" />
    </yummy:PancakeView.Border>
    <Label Text="This is just a happy little label." />
</yummy:PancakeView>

Using a markup extension

Alternatively, you can use the markup extension syntax for the Border property as well.

<yummy:PancakeView Border="{yummy:BorderMarkup Color=#FF0000, Thickness='10'}">
    <Label Text="This is just a happy little label." />
</yummy:PancakeView>
