Xaml controls are typically implemented using an element tree that’s defined in a template. For example the template for a ComboBox control has a TextBlock in it to display the selected value. Several controls have properties that are only expected to be useful to these templates, and so there’s a common pattern for the control to expose them in a TemplateSettings property. For example ComboBox.TemplateSettings is used by the ComboBox’s template. See this doc page for more details.
The new API here adds a PaneTitle property to NavigationView's existing TemplateSettings property. This helps the control template decide if it should show the NavigationView.PaneTitle property, as it should be ignored if the NavigationView.PaneHeader property is set. (The RS5 PaneHeader property supersedes/replaces the RS4 PaneTitle property.)
Provides calculated PaneTitle that can be referenced as TemplatedParent sources when defining templates for a NavigationView control. Not intended for general use.

This is intended for use in the style of the NavigationView control. Sample usage:
<Style TargetType="local:NavigationView">
...
<TextBlock
x:Name="PaneTitleTextBlock"
Grid.Column="0"
Text="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}, Path=TemplateSettings.PaneTitle}"
HorizontalAlignment="Left"
VerticalAlignment="Center"
Style="{StaticResource NavigationViewItemHeaderTextStyle}"/>| Member Name | Description |
|---|---|
| PaneTitle | The NavigationView.PaneTitle displayed in the control. Empty when NavigationView.PaneHeader is set |
