syntax question with attached property

In XAML I could write:

<Button DockPanel.Dock="Top" Content="OK" />

or

<Button DockPanel.Dock="Top" />
<Button.Content>
OK
</Button.Content>
</Button>


but how could I use the same syntax as above with attached property?
is there something like:

<Button Content="OK" />
<Button.DockPanel.Dock>
Top
</Button.DockPanel.Dock>
</Button>

Hi,

I don't think you can do that. Only an object's own properties can be
written as children XAML elements. In your example, as DockPanel.Dock
is an attached property, and not a Button-owned property, it can only
be expressed as an attribute.

It turns out that you can!!
like that, too easy!
<Button Content="OK" />
<DockPanel.Dock>Top</DockPanel.Dock>
</Button>
