C# Adding button to XAML

Hi everyone

I am trying to add a button to my form
But If i drag a button to the circled spot it will be put in the XAML code of the Export button.
So when i add a tooltip it will share the same tooltip.
If I manually add the code below the export button, then it breaks the UI.
Cannot really make sense of how the WPF forms work so probably why I mess things up

Hi there,
Could you post up the actual code, so that anyone wanting to help can test your code locally?

I'm not sure how this all works but it does not look to me like that circled spot is a drop area. There probably should have been something there to start with, like a container or panel or div or whatever. Lacking that, VS helpfully seems to pick the nearest element as a drop area instead of giving a proper message. I could be wrong though !
