In WPF Stretch a control to fill a ListView Column

Question

How do I make a control fill the whole cell in a ListView (with a GridView)? I\'ve played around with various properties, but the control is always it\'s minimum size.

Another almost-solution is to do something as follows in your datatemplate that goes into the gridviewcolumn

Width="{Binding  RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor , AncestorType=ListViewItem, AncestorLevel=1},Path=ActualWidth}">

Here's a sample DataTemplate which does this.
