# How to: Partition Space by Using the DockPanel Element
|
|
The following example creates a simple [!INCLUDE[TLA#tla_ui](../../../includes/tlasharptla-ui-md.md)] framework using a <xref:System.Windows.Controls.DockPanel> element. The <xref:System.Windows.Controls.DockPanel> partitions available space to its child elements.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
This example uses the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.DockPanel.Dock%2A> property, which is an attached property, to dock two identical <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Border> elements at the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Dock.Top> of the partitioned space. A third <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Border> element is docked to the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Dock.Left>, with its width set to 200 pixels. A fourth <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Border> is docked to the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Dock.Bottom> of the screen. The last <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Border> element automatically fills the remaining space.

|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> By default, the last child of a <xref:System.Windows.Controls.DockPanel> element fills the remaining unallocated space. If you do not want this behavior, set `LastChildFill="False"`.

The compiled application yields a new UI that looks like this.
