Hide control within a WPF User Control Library

I've a project made from the "WPF User Control Library" Template in Visual Studio. This project contains one main usercontrol plus additional Windows/Usercontrols.

How can I "hide" these additional Windows/Usercontrols, so that the user can only import the main usercontrol from the assembly (I wanted to put a screen-shot to illustrate my question but unfortunately, my "reputation" is too low!).

Thx All

Make those controls internal. If you have classic UserControls with XAML and codebehind you will need to add x:ClassModifier="internal" to the root element in the XAML:

<UserControl
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    x:Class="MyNameSpace.MyUserControl"
    x:ClassModifier="internal">
       <!-- bla -->
</UserControl>
