是否允许嵌套模板控件

Question

I have a Templated Control that works correctly in XAML documents. However, when I include it in the XAML body of another Template, it doesn't work correctly. It displays, but its OnApplyTemplate() method is never called.

Can I use "nested" Templated Controls?

Answer 1

I created a simple example of nested Templated Controls which worked without problem. So the simple answer is yes, nested Templated Controls work correctly. I still haven't determined why my real code isn't working, but I'm sure it's user error. While UserControl's are easier, at least for me, both these Templated Controls included <ContentPresenter> markup, and I don't know how to do that in a UserControl.

But that's another question.
