 Remarks

An Accordion control contains a collection of AccordionItem objects. To expand an AccordionItem in an Accordion, set the IsExpanded property to true.

 Example

The following code illustrates an Accordion control defined in XAML:

XAML

<ui:Accordion>
  <TextBlock Text="Hello world!" ui:Accordion.Header="A TextBlock as an item" />
  <ui:AccordionItem Header="A common accordion item">
    <ListBox>
      <ListBoxItem Content="Item #1" />
      <ListBoxItem Content="Item #2" />
      <ListBoxItem Content="Item #3" />
    </ListBox>
  </ui:AccordionItem>
  <ui:AccordionItem Header="An item with customized header" IsExpanded="True">
    <ui:AccordionItem.HeaderTemplate>
      <DataTemplate>
        <Border BorderBrush="Red" BorderThickness="1">
          <TextBlock Text="{Binding}" />
        </Border>
      </DataTemplate>
