Sorry if the name of the question is too long, I don't really know how to make it smaller because English isn't my native language.

NOTE: It is UWP C#, not C# alone (XAML + C#). Also, the icon is from the font "Segoe MDL2 Assets". My goal is to make the button with the icon and normal text. The reason why I don't use an image because the icon that I have is better than any other icons that we can download (and it is better quality).

So, I want to make an textblock that already have text inside have a button as parent. I searched on Google but they aren't about my subject. Only one question matched with my problem BUT the answer is by doing

XML

<Button ...><StackPanel><TextBlock .../></StackPanel></Button>

but it is what I already have done.

What I have tried:

I tried to make like I showed above: "

XML

<Button ...><StackPanel><TextBlock .../></StackPanel></Button>

". My code is

XML

<Button FontFamily="Segoe MDL2 Assets" Content="" Width="50" Height="50" Background="Transparent">
    <StackPanel>
        <TextBlock Text="Settings" FontSize="18" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
    </StackPanel>
</Button>

You're trying to set both the Content property and the content of the element. You can't set both at the same time.

Try:

XAML

<Button Background="Transparent">
    <StackPanel>
        <TextBlock FontFamily="Segoe MDL2 Assets" Text="" Width="50" Height="50"/>
        <TextBlock Text="Settings" FontSize="18" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
    </StackPanel>
</Button>

Thanks

I realized before any solution on the question. I even added another stackpanel inside the stack panel because it was glitchy for some reasons.
