I am trying to position item-count circle on the shopping-cart icon. When I set margins to adjust the item circle it goes out of the box. see image below:
Here is the code of shopping-cart icon with item-count circle of above problem-statement:
<StackPanel HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="-35 0 0 0" Cursor="Hand" >
<Border Background="White" Width="10" Height="10" CornerRadius="5" HorizontalAlignment="Left"
Margin="0 -10 0 0">
<TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Center" Text="0" TextAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"
FontSize="7" Foreground="#772EA4" />
</Border>
<Image HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="35" Height="35">
<Image.Source>
<BitmapImage UriSource="/KioskHive;component/Resources/Images/shopping-cart.png" />
</Image.Source>
</Image>
<TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top" Margin="45,-30,-35,0" Text="Checkout" />
</StackPanel>
And here is the complete Button
code that I am trying:
<Button Grid.Column="1" x:Name="btnCheckout" Foreground="White" Width="180" Height="50"
Background="#772EA4" FontSize="18.7" BorderThickness="0" Margin="11,0,0,0" FlowDirection="LeftToRight" HorizontalAlignment="Left"
Style="{StaticResource PoppinsFont}" Click="CheckoutButton_Click">
<StackPanel HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="-35 0 0 0" Cursor="Hand" >
<Border Background="White" Width="10" Height="10" CornerRadius="5" HorizontalAlignment="Left"
Margin="0 -10 0 0">
<TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Center" Text="0" TextAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"
FontSize="7" Foreground="#772EA4" />
</Border>
<Image HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="35" Height="35">
<Image.Source>
<BitmapImage UriSource="/KioskHive;component/Resources/Images/shopping-cart.png" />
</Image.Source>
</Image>
<TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top" Margin="45,-30,-35,0" Text="Checkout" />
</StackPanel>
<Button.Resources>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type Border}">
<Setter Property="CornerRadius" Value="25"/>
</Style>
</Button.Resources>
</Button>
How can I position/adjust the margins Margin="0 -10 0 0"
to put item count exactly on the cart icon? Like this:
Thanks in advance for your answers and suggestions!
Margin has following settings:
Margin = "left-margin top-margin right-margin bottom-margin"
In your case Margin="0 -10 0 0" could be replaced through
Margin="20 -10 0 -8"
20 would shift your white border with article count 20px to the right and -8 would shift it 8px to the bottom without to affect other controls, at least in your current layout.
The numbers 20 and -8 are here to present the needed effect only, you should change them so that your button looks like you want.
