WPF: Load Window inside Grid frame
I have WPF application and ListBoxItems as right Menu.
When specific ListBoxItem Islected i want to load different Window that i created called Home (instead of create several Grid elements and changed its Visibility) so i have this Grid:
<Grid>
<Frame Name="MyFrame"/>
</Grid>
And when the specific ListBoxItem Islected:
MyFrame.Content = new Home();
And got this error:
System.InvalidOperationException: ''MyApplication.Home' root element
is not valid for navigation.
'
Is this the right way to load other Window/Page ?
wpf grid window

Home must be a Page or a UserControl. You can't set the Content property of a Frame to an instance of a Window.
If you want navigation history, you should consider using the NavigationService of the Frame to navigate to a page:
MyFrame.NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("Home.xaml", UriKind.Relative));

Well, it's two different types. A window is a floating top-level thing only. It cannot be the child of any other element.

Home must be a Page or a UserControl. You can't set the Content property of a Frame to an instance of a Window.
If you want navigation history, you should consider using the NavigationService of the Frame to navigate to a page:
MyFrame.NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("Home.xaml", UriKind.Relative));
