❔ StackPanel Problem

I want to create a stackpanel with some images but for some reason the stackpanel will only show the first item in it (notice how I can only see the textblock in the added pic, (settings button is unrelated))

a screenshot where half of the relevant code is cut off isn't really helpful

Rules of WPF:

❌ Avoid the WPF Designer to eliminate a category of confusing bugs
❌ Don't rely on Margin as the primary tool for layouts
❌ Avoid writing UserControls or subclassing to extend a default control -- use Behaviors instead (Microsoft.Xaml.Behaviors.Wpf)

✅ Write XAML by hand and autoformat with "Ctrl K,D" or XAML Styler
✅ Rely upon XAML Hot Reload to design your app's UI at runtime
✅ Use layout controls (Grid, DockPanel, etc) to support proper resizing
✅ Use data binding to eliminate glue code and state synchronization issues
✅ Use collection controls and DataTemplate to dynamically create lists of controls
✅ Learn MVVM to create maintainable apps
✅ Use the Dispatcher to update controls from non-UI threads
✅ WPF's default controls can be easily modernized via $wpfuilibs
✅ Include relevant XAML, code-behind, and ViewModel code for questions when possible

Do not use the designer because it relies on Margin.

Don't rely on Margin as the primary tool for layouts

though I'm unsure how that StackPanel is showing any type of collection of items
