Inheriting from a UserControl in WPF

by

Well .. you create your base control 

public abstract class BaseUserControl : UserControl{...}

then in the XAML file :

<Controls:BaseUserControl x:Class="Termo.Win.Controls.ChildControl"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:Controls="clr-namespace:Namespace.Of.Your.BaseControl">

And that should work.

EDIT: Hmm.. this example is useful when you have a base control without XAML and then inherit from it. The other way around(from a base control with Xaml) – I’m not sure how you can go about it.

EDIT2: Apparently from this post + comments i take that what you want might not be possible.
