Hello-
I have a GridView which is being bound to an object where one of the string fields can be long enough that the text needs to wrap in the cell to be visible. I've set TextWrapping=Wrap on 1) The GridViewDataColumn in question 2)GridView.RowStyle 3) GridViewDataColumn.CellStyle. None of these result in the text wrapping in the cell, instead the content is cut off at the end of the cell. Are there any other reasons why text wrapping wouldn't work?

Thanks!
Greg

Hi Greg,

Attached I am sending you a sample application in which a CellStyle is applied and the text is being wrapped. The problem seems to be in a failing TemplateBinding which handles the wrapping. This has been logged as a bug in out backlog and we will be addressing this issue in the future. Right now your easiest option is to edit the template of the cell and set the wrapping of the AlignmentContentPresenter there.

I hope you will find the sample useful. I would also like to thank you for the feedback.
