Description
There are no compiler errors when a Border has multiple children. All that happens is that the last child is rendered in the Border. There is, however, an intellisense error: XLS0501: The property Content is set more than once.
Behold my Borders:
<!-- Single child -->
<VerticalStackLayout Margin="0,40,0,0">
<Border Stroke="#C49B33"
StrokeThickness="4"
Background="#2B0B98"
Padding="16,8"
HorizontalOptions="Center">
<Border.StrokeShape>
<RoundRectangle CornerRadius="40,0,0,40" />
</Border.StrokeShape>
<Label Text=".NET MAUI"
TextColor="White"
FontSize="18"
FontAttributes="Bold" />
</Border>
<!-- Multiple children -->
<Border Margin="0,50,0,0"
Stroke="#C49B33"
StrokeThickness="4"
Background="#2B0B98"
Padding="16,8"
HorizontalOptions="Center">
<Border.StrokeShape>
<RoundRectangle CornerRadius="40,0,0,40" />
</Border.StrokeShape>
<Label Text=".NET MAUI"
TextColor="White"
FontSize="18"
FontAttributes="Bold" />
<Label Text="Another label"
TextColor="White"
FontSize="18"
FontAttributes="Bold" />
</Border>
</VerticalStackLayout>
I'd expect, to maintain symmetry with the WPF/UWP Border that it shouldn't accept multiple children, and that the way to embed multiple children in it is to do so in a layout.
I get that this could be considered by design (the Content property gets set twice, and it's the final set that wins) but at the very least I'd consider this a paper cut.
Steps to Reproduce
- Run the attached sample.
- Behold the majesty of the borders (all credit to @davidortinau - I don't have a design bone in my body).
Expected Behavior
A compiler error due to the second Border object containing multiple children.
Actual Behavior
No compiler errors. The final child in the Border is the one that's displayed.
Basic Information
- Version with issue: MAUI P9
- IDE: VS 2022 P6
