Does the VirtualizingWrapPanel support items of different widths?

For example, I have a list box which contains a list of Tile. I use a DataTemplateSelector  to look at a property on a tile to select the DataTemplate to render the Tile with. Depending on the tile type, the width will be a different size. Is this possible with this wrap panel?

Relevant Snippets of code Im use:
<ListBox x:Name="lstStaticNavOptions" ItemsSource="{Binding StartTileList}"
                             Background="Transparent" BorderThickness="0"
                             ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
                             ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
                             HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch"
                             Style="{StaticResource TileListBoxStyle}"
                             ItemTemplate="{StaticResource dtTileChooser}" >

<DataTemplate x:Key="dtTileChooser">
    <templates:TileTemplateSelector Content="{Binding}" >
        <templates:TileTemplateSelector.RefreshTrainingStatusTemplate>
            <DataTemplate>
                <Grid Margin="2 0" Width="120" Height="120" Background="Red">
                    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
                        <RowDefinition Height="*" />
                        <RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
                    </Grid.RowDefinitions>
                    <TextBlock Text="{Binding TileStatus}"  Grid.Row="1"  VerticalAlignment="Top" TextAlignment="Center" TextWrapping="Wrap"/>
                </Grid>
            </DataTemplate>
        </templates:TileTemplateSelector.RefreshTrainingStatusTemplate>
        <templates:TileTemplateSelector.MyDocumentsStatusTemplate>
            <DataTemplate>
                <Grid Margin="2 0" Width="250" Height="120" Background="#FF169FDC">
                    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
                        <RowDefinition Height="*" />
                        <RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
                    </Grid.RowDefinitions>
                    <TextBlock Text="{Binding TileStatus}"  Grid.Row="1"  VerticalAlignment="Top" TextAlignment="Center" TextWrapping="Wrap"/>
                </Grid>
            </DataTemplate>
        </templates:TileTemplateSelector.MyDocumentsStatusTemplate>
    </templates:TileTemplateSelector>
</DataTemplate>

<Style x:Key="TileListBoxStyle" TargetType="ListBox" >
    <Setter Property="Padding" Value="0" />
    <Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="0" />
    <Setter Property="ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility" Value="Disabled" />
    <Setter Property="ItemsPanel">
        <Setter.Value>
            <ItemsPanelTemplate>
                <telerik:VirtualizingWrapPanel Orientation="Horizontal" ItemHeight="120" ItemWidth="120" />
            </ItemsPanelTemplate>
        </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>
</Style>

Hello,

I'm afraid that such scenario is not supported. 

All the best,

Ok... thanks.. I'll use the Silverlight Toolkit WrapPanel instead. Is there any thoughts to adding this feature in the future? Would the older RadWrapPanel be an option?

Hi,

 I'm not sure if these will work for you since they are no virtual - you will get performance and memory problems in case of many items.
