Notes to inheritors
When you derive from ContentElement, consider whether you want your element to be focusable, because by default it will not be focusable. If you want your element to be focusable, override the metadata for this property in your derived class static constructor as follows:
FocusableProperty.OverrideMetadata(typeof(myElement), new UIPropertyMetadata(true));
FocusableProperty.OverrideMetadata(GetType(myElement), New UIPropertyMetadata(True))
where myElement
is the class name of the type that you are overriding the metadata value on.
