Here is another request that a friend of mine asked me recently. To achieve this, I’ve just create a custom control that contains a TextBlock and a TextBox (which is hidden) controls.
When user double clic on the TextBlock, the Textbox appears.
<Style TargetType="{x:Type local:EditableTextBlock}">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type local:EditableTextBlock}">
<Grid x:Name="PART_GridContainer"
Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"
Width="{TemplateBinding Width}"
Height="{TemplateBinding Height}">
<TextBlock x:Name="PART_TbDisplayText"
Visibility="Visible"
Background="{Binding Mode=TwoWay, Path=TextBlockBackgroundColor, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:EditableTextBlock}}}"
Foreground="{Binding Mode=TwoWay, Path=TextBlockForegroundColor, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:EditableTextBlock}}}"
Text="{Binding Mode=TwoWay, Path=Text, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:EditableTextBlock}}}" />
<TextBox x:Name="PART_TbEditText"
Visibility="Hidden"
Background="{Binding Mode=TwoWay, Path=TextBoxBackgroundColor, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:EditableTextBlock}}}"
Foreground="{Binding Mode=TwoWay, Path=TextBoxForegroundColor, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:EditableTextBlock}}}"
Text="{Binding Mode=TwoWay, Path=Text, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type local:EditableTextBlock}}}" />
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
[TemplatePart(Type = typeof(Grid), Name = EditableTextBlock.GRID_NAME)]
[TemplatePart(Type = typeof(TextBlock), Name = EditableTextBlock.TEXTBLOCK_DISPLAYTEXT_NAME)]
[TemplatePart(Type = typeof(TextBox), Name = EditableTextBlock.TEXTBOX_EDITTEXT_NAME)]
public class EditableTextBlock : Control

Bye.
