title: WPF: Is there a sort of XAML tag that behaves like the HTML span element?
body: <p>Coming from ASP.NET, this WPF stuff is just confusing.  All I want to do is put a red asterisk by a label to indicate a required field.  Playing around with stuff, I found that this actually does the trick:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;TextBlock Grid.Row="6" Height="28" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top"&gt;
      &lt;Label Foreground="Red" Content="*" /&gt;&lt;Label Content="Heavy Weight" /&gt;
  &lt;/TextBlock&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Being that I just came up with this, I am not convinced it's the academic route a seasoned WPF developer would take.  Additionally, this markup puts a huge amount of white space in between the asterisk and the label.  In HTML, a span element would just render right beside its next sibling element.  FYI, I tried putting a label within a label, but VS2010 kept barking about "The property 'content' is set more than once".</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
