Prevent taps from passing through buttons in XAML/WPF

Solution
In your `Container_Tapped` event handler you could check the RoutedEventArgs.OriginalSource Property. If `e.OriginalSource` is a descendant of your button do nothing.
For that Visual.IsDescendantOf Method could be helpful.
Problem
In my project, I have a large container with a handler for taps. Inside this container, I also have a button. My goal is to handle all taps on the background container UNLESS the user clicks on the button. Unfortunately, when I click on the button, it fires both the click handler on the button AND the tap handler for the container. Here's some example XAML: ``` <Grid Width="250" Height="250" Fill="Red" Tapped="Container_Tapped"> <Button Click="Button_Clicked"> <Rectangle Width="20" Height="20" Fill="Blue" /> </Button> </Grid> ``` Is there a way to handle the tap event on the button to prevent it from bubbling to the container? Any other ideas?
