How to: Translate an Element
This example shows how to translate (move) an element by using a xref:System.Windows.Media.TranslateTransform.
The xref:System.Windows.Media.TranslateTransform class is especially useful for moving elements inside panels that do not support absolute positioning. For example, by applying a xref:System.Windows.Media.TranslateTransform to the xref:System.Windows.UIElement.RenderTransform%2A property of an element, you can move an element within a xref:System.Windows.Controls.StackPanel or xref:System.Windows.Controls.DockPanel.
Use the xref:System.Windows.Media.TranslateTransform.X%2A property of the xref:System.Windows.Media.TranslateTransform to specify the amount, in pixels, to move the element along the x-axis. Use the xref:System.Windows.Media.TranslateTransform.Y%2A property to specify the amount, in pixels, to move the element along the y-axis. Finally, apply the xref:System.Windows.Media.TranslateTransform to the xref:System.Windows.UIElement.RenderTransform%2A property of the element.
The following example uses a xref:System.Windows.Media.TranslateTransform to move an element 50 pixels to the right and 50 pixels down.
