Border

Border draws a border around a single content visual.

Border

Basic usage

new Border(new TextArea("TextArea inside a Border"));

Per-control border style

You can override the border glyphs and border colors on a per-border basis using BorderStyle:

using XenoAtom.Terminal.UI.Styling;

new Border("Rounded").Style(BorderStyle.Rounded);

Dynamic content

Use the factory constructor to dynamically recompute content:

new Border(() => new TextBlock(DateTime.Now.ToString("T")));

Notes

  • Border is a layout container: the border consumes space around its content.
  • For a labeled frame, see Group.

Defaults

  • Default alignment: HorizontalAlignment = Align.Start, VerticalAlignment = Align.Start
