<uikit:Badge Count="3">
<Border Width="32" Height="32" CornerRadius="6" Background="{DynamicResource UIKit.Secondary}" />

</uikit:Badge>
</StackPanel>Usage
uikit:Badge wraps its content and draws over its top right corner, taking no room of its own: the Count on a pill at least 14px wide, a 6px dot with IsDot="True", or an Icon in a ringed circle at the bottom right. A count of 0 shows nothing; past Maximum (99 by default) it reads "99+". An icon takes precedence over the dot, which takes precedence over the count. The color is BadgeBackground, the theme's red by default (not Background, which belongs to the content). The sizes small, the default medium and large move the count and resize the icon's circle.
| Property | Effect |
|---|---|
Count | The number shown; 0 hides the badge. |
Maximum | The largest number shown as is; beyond it, "Maximum+". |
IsDot | A 6px dot instead of the count. |
Icon | A geometry in a 10, 16 or 24px circle (by size) at the bottom right. |
BadgeBackground | The badge's brush. |
Examples
Counts of 3, 12 and 100 (shown as 99+), and 12 with Maximum="9".
