#913 – Changing the Direction that an Expander Expands

By default, an Expander control expands down, placing the content of the Expander below the header, when the control is expanded.

You can cause the Expander to expand in a different direction using the ExpandDirection property.  Valid values are Up, Down, Left or Right.
