The control must act in certain ways allowing the user to type the name, the alias or the code of the customer, and the control will select the correct one, or offer a list of possible candidates, and other behaviors.

But I'm lazy to re-implement all the Explorer's functionality: the Views, Sorting, Context Menus and drag&drop. I feel like the problem is common and someone has already assembled a go...

The C# class has a static constructor in it: static Class() { ... } which, through the Call Stack, I found is called by the main window's InitializeComponent() method.

It should look like this: I don't care about reusing it in other applications that need somewhat different looks. It's just for display Content needs to wrap, maximum 3 lines. I'm trying to implement it as a derived class of UserControl with XAML defining the visual elements, but I'm not sure if that's the best option. So how wou...
