Answer 1

All you need is a container with the name PART_ContentHost .

Here's the complete example on how to create a control template for a textbox: TextBox Styles and Templates . In this case the textbox is presented inside a ScrollViewer .

If I truly understand your problem, you want to Show Text Value of Textbox in custom Textbox Control. So for doing this, you must use Template-Binding in template Like :

<CustomControl Text="{TemplateBinding Text}">

CustomControl refer to any control you use in Template.
