	Hi, We are using FlowCharter example for WPF in our main application, we have an application that open tabItems in tabControl and we want to open flowcharter MainWindow in that tab item. Before we were doing it in Winform easily by using tabPage and adding flowcharter MainForm as a control in tabPage. Here TabItem is not allowing to add whole flowcharter MainWindow in wpf as a content, so is there any alternate way to open flowcharter MainWndow in tabControl.

	Hi, The WPF Window must be the top-level control of a visual tree and therefore cannot be added as a child of a TabControl item. However, you can extract all of the content of the MainWindow and add it to a UserControl. Then add an instance of this UserControl to your tab item. The attached modified version of the FlowCharter sample illustrates this. https://mindfusion.eu/_samples/_sample_FlowCharter.zip I hope this helps. Regards, Meppy
