autosize

Is there any way how to tell component in WPF to take 100% of available space? Like width: 100%; in CSS I've got this XAML, and I don't know how to force Grid to take 100% width. <ListBox Name="lstConnections"> <ListBox.ItemTemplate> <DataTemplate> <Grid Background="LightPink"> <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/> <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/> </Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <Grid.RowDefinitions> <RowDefinition Height="Auto"/> <RowDefinition Height="Auto"/> </Grid.RowDefinitions> <TextBlock Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" Text="{Binding Path=User}" Margin="4"></TextBlock>

When playing with WPF, I discovered the SizeToContent method, which enables me to create dynamically the content of a window, and then have it automatically resized to fit its content. I try to do the same thing using WinForms, and it fails. I used the AutoSize and AutoSizeMode , but it fails to correctly size to its content. Is there a way to create a WinForm with controls that adjust to the size of their content, as in WPF? Thanks, As far as I remember this is a bit tricky in Windows Forms. Basically you need to use auto-sizing containers (e.g. TableLayoutPanel, etc. – and set their AutoSize

In the following XAML the button will stretch to fit the width of the window, including as you resize the window. However, the TextBlock and blue box are centered. How would you change it so that: 1) the TextBlock is inside the Button, but left justified with the actual Button width (i.e. on the left side of the Window) 2) the Canvas is inside the Button, but right-justified with the actual Button width (i.e. on the right side of the Window) It seems "HorizontalAlignment=Stretch" doesn't work in this case, and, when using Auto sizing, the Grid inside the Button only ever grows to the minimum

I have a textbox in my visual tree as follows.. Window Grid ListBox ItemTemplate DataTemplate Grid Grid Textbox ... The textbox is defined as.. <TextBox Height="Auto" Text="{Binding Path=LyricsForDisplay}" MinHeight="50" MaxHeight="400" Visibility="Visible" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" IsReadOnly="True" AllowDrop="False" TextWrapping="WrapWithOverflow"> </TextBox> When long text is added to the bound variable (LyricsForDisplay) all of the items in the listbox expand their textboxes/grids width's to allow for the entire string to be seen if you use the scrollbar on bottom that appears...

Android recently added the support for resizing TextViews text size based on the view size and the min and max text size. https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/look-and-feel/autosizing-textview.html Unfortunately, they don't support EditTexts, so Is there any other alternatives for EditText? I was stuck as you, how EditText is child of TextView but don't support autosize ¿?¿? I have achieve this with some kind of hack. First I saw the TextView code to copy and implement as extension (in Kotlin) on EditTextView, but.. there is a bulk of methods, so endly I discard that option. What I

I have learned that if the height of a grid row, where the ScrollViewer resides, is set as Auto , the vertical scroll bar will not take effect since the actual size of the ScrollViewer can be larger than the height in sight. So in order to make the scroll bar work, I should set the height to either a fixed number or star height However, I now have this requirement, that I have two different views reside in two grid rows, and I have a toggle button to switch between these two views: when one view is shown, the other one is hidden/disappeared. So I have defined two rows, both heights are set as
