[MVVM] How to bind a collection to a StackPanel instead of a ListBox?

[slxdy]

It's hard to explain this in words, so let me show an example.

This is what I currently have:

<ListBox ItemsSource="{Binding Games}" Background="Transparent">
    <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <views:GameControl DataContext="{Binding}" />
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>

And I'd like to turn it into something like:

<StackPanel ItemsSource="{Binding Games}" Orientation="Vertical">
    <StackPanel.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <views:GameControl DataContext="{Binding}" />
        </DataTemplate>
    </StackPanel.ItemTemplate>
</StackPanel>

How do I achieve that?

StackPanel isn't a collection control, it's a layout control. I'm guessing that you don't want selection in which case you should use ItemsControl instead. You can replace the ItemsPanel of a collection control, but ItemsControl already has a StackPanel as its default.
