Hi,
I want to create a textbox and combobox for an optional parameter. the header contains a checkbox to check and the control is enabled to fill the value
if the checkbox is not checked, the parameter won{t be used

What I have tried:

<TextBox x:Name="TXT_Identifier" IsEnabled="{Binding ElementName=CHK_Identifier, Path=IsChecked}" PlaceholderText="Identifier" Margin="0,24,0,0" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Top">
      <TextBox.Header>
         <CheckBox x:Name="CHK_Identifier" Content="Identifier" />
      </TextBox.Header>
   </TextBox>

The issue is the checkbox is part of the component so the checkbox is disabled too.

I found a solution by myselves. Just switch checkbox and Textbox

<CheckBox x:Name="CHK_Identifier" VerticalAlignment="Center">
   <CheckBox.Content>
      <TextBox x:Name="TXT_Identifier" Header="Identifier" IsEnabled="{Binding ElementName=CHK_Identifier, Path=IsChecked}" PlaceholderText="Identifier" />
   </CheckBox.Content>
</CheckBox>
