I'd like to create an ItemsControl
where child items are placed like a WrapPanel
, but child Items should take as much space as it can. So that when the window size gets larger or smaller, the child items should stretch according to a certain width:height ratio. When the child items get added or removed from the ItemsControl
's ItemsSource
, the WrapPanel
should place linebreaks among items appropriately to keep child item's width:height ratio.
Below is what I have so far. Is it possible to do this in Xaml? or should I create a custom control for this? Thanks in advance!
<Window>
<Grid>
<ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding DataCollection}">
<ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<WrapPanel Orientation="Vertical"/>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Border BorderBrush="Black" BorderThickness="1" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch">
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" >
<TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="{Binding Name}" />
<TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="{Binding Value}"/>
<TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="{Binding Time, StringFormat='hh:mm:ss' }"/>
</StackPanel>
</Border>
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
</Grid>
</Window>
Use a UniformGrid
rather than a WrapPanel
. Just set the number of columns you want with the Columns
property, and it should give you the desired result.
