The Window class can be used is usually use in conjunction with the WindowHost class. The WindowHost class acts as a container of Window objects and enables the interactive functionality of the windows -moving, resizing and so on.

To add a Window to a host, either add it to its Windows collection or call the Show or ShowDialog methods of the Window passing the host as an argument. Since the Windows property is declared as the ContentProperty of the WindowHost, windows can be added to a WindowHost directly in XAML.

The following code illustrates a WindowHost with a single Window defined in XAML:

<Window x:Class="WpfApplication.Window2"   xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"   xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"   xmlns:ui="clr-namespace:MindFusion.UI.Wpf;assembly=MindFusion.UI.Wpf"   Title="Window2" Height="394" Width="685">   <Grid>     <ui:WindowHost Name="host" Background="#F0F0FF">       <ui:Window Width="300" Height="200" Header="This is a test window" IsActive="True" Left="100" Top="50" Foreground="White">         <Grid Margin="5">           <Grid.RowDefinitions>             <RowDefinition />             <RowDefinition Height="Auto" MinHeight="30" />           </Grid.RowDefinitions>           <StackPanel Grid.Row="1" Orientation="Horizontal" Margin="5" HorizontalAlignment="Center">             <Button Width="80">OK</Button>             <Button Width="80">Cancel</Button>           </StackPanel>           <Label Margin="20,35,0,0" Width="74" Height="25" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top">Enter name:</Label>           <TextBox Margin="100,37,25,0" Name="textBox1" Height="22" VerticalAlignment="Top" />         </Grid>       </ui:Window>     </ui:WindowHost>   </Grid> </Window>

The code above yields results similar to the following picture:

To adjust the position or size of the window programmatically, use the Left, Top, Width and Height properties respectively. To minimize or maximize the window use its WindowState property.
