Change visible rectangle of content in ContentControl

In WPF I have ContentControl that has limited size (lets say 100x30). A Content of this ContentControl is a Label of size 200x30 so the whole Label cannot be visible within the ContentControl.

How can I programatically set which area of the Label is visible in ContentControl ? The visible area (rectangle) of the content may change over time. Can I do this without using ScrollViewer (just to set visible clip) ?

EDIT: Well then, I am not even able to do it using ScrollViewer so any advice on that would be appriciated as well

You can place your label on canvas and move it using Canvas.Left property.

Small example where label's position is adjusted using binding to a slider Value property.

<ContentControl Width="100" Height="30">
  <Canvas ClipToBounds="True">
    <Label Canvas.Left="{Binding ElementName=mySlider, Path=Value}" Width="200" Height="30">Here is some very long sample text </Label>
  </Canvas>
</ContentControl>
<Slider Name="mySlider" Minimum="-200" Maximum="100" />
