    Hi Telerik,

    How do I make the text in the Label wrap?  Our users have sentences as questions that go in the label.  How do I make it wrap.  See the attached image.

    Also, I'm specifically setting the MaxWidth of the property grid; yet value column continues to grow.

    Hi,

    In order to achieve your goal, you can subscribe to PropertyGrid's FieldLoaded event. Using the ChildrenOfType extension method you can find a TextBlock with name - PART_FieldLabelN and set its TextWrapping property to Wrap. Please check the following code snippet for a reference:
     

    private void propertyGrid_FieldLoaded(object sender, FieldEventArgs e)
            {
                e.Field.ChildrenOfType<TextBlock>().Where(tb => tb.Name == "PART_FieldLabelN").FirstOrDefault().Width = 150;
                e.Field.ChildrenOfType<TextBlock>().Where(tb => tb.Name == "PART_FieldLabelN").FirstOrDefault().TextWrapping = TextWrapping.Wrap;           
            }
