#960 – A ListBox Can Store Objects of Different Types

You'll most often bind the contents of a ListBox to a collection of items that are all of the same type. 

 You can, however, add different types of objects to the same ListBox.  Items in a ListBox can be either standard CLR objects or objects that derive from UIElement.

In the example below, we add several different types of objects to a ListBox.

<ListBox Margin="15">

    <ListBoxItem>Simple string</ListBoxItem>

    <local:Actor FullName="Liam Neeson" BirthYear="1952" KnownFor="Schindler's List"/>

    <Button Content="Click Me"/>

    <TextBox Text="zzz" Width="100"/>

    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">

        <TextBlock Text="Username:"/>

        <TextBox Width="100" Margin="5,0"/>

    </StackPanel>

</ListBox>
