Add a usercontrol using c#

Question

I have two usercontrols already created, and I would like to add these usercontrols to the main page using only c# code, because the number of usercontrols to introduce will depende on an integer that the user will provide me.

Propably I'll have to use a gridview but I didn't find any examples that could explain it.

Is it possible to add a usercontrol to the main page using c# code, or should I create it in the XAML page and work the visibilities? (I prefer to use the c# mode because I could in some way to limit the number of user controls to introduce.)

Thanks

Hello ACanha :)

yes, you can add elements using C#

and here an example code might be useful

 public MainPage()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            TextBlock printTextBlock = new TextBlock();
            printTextBlock.Text = "Hello, World!";
            MainStackPanel.Children.Add(printTextBlock);
            
        }

there is already a stackpanel created named "MainStackPanel"

and this might be created as well, i am just giving you an example

which means if you got a gird named for example "TheGrid"

you may do like this and it will work

theGrid.Children.Add(printTextBlock);

you may also create the gird using C#

 Grid myGrid = new Grid();
 myGrid.Margin = new Thickness(0, 0, 0, 0);

and see where will you add your grid.

i hope this was helpfull and if there is any further thing you wanna know about, please let me know :)
