Inserting text into a SymbolPaletteItem

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your interest in Syncfusion products.

Regarding adding text inside symbol palette item, Symbol palette items can contain any UIElement as its content, provided they must be serializable. A sample has been created please refer the sample form the following link.

To add a text in Symbol palette item, please create a grid and add the required content as its children, along with it create a TextBlock with the required text and added it into Grid’s Children. Now assign this Grid as SymbolPaletteItems Content as shown in the following Code Snippet.

Code Snippet:

//new Symbol palette item
SymbolPaletteItem symbolPaletteItem = new SymbolPaletteItem();
//Content for SymbolPaletteItem
System.Windows.Shapes.Path path = this.Resources["CustomShape"] as System.Windows.Shapes.Path;
Grid g = new Grid();
//Text content for SymbolPaletteITem
TextBlock test = new TextBlock() { Text = "Text", HorizontalAlignment=HorizontalAlignment.Center,VerticalAlignment=VerticalAlignment.Center};
//Add both the contents as grid's children
g.Children.Add(path);
g.Children.Add(test);
//Assign the grid as the SymbolPaletteItems' content.
symbolPaletteItem.Content = g;


Please let us know if there are any concerns.
