I am attempting to use a RadWatermarkTextBox in a multi-line fashion, with a watermark a couple sentences long, and have found myself unable to get the WatermarkContent to wrap in the same way the normal text does. I have the following xaml declaration:
This declaration gets me the desired text wrapping behavior for text typed in the box, but my WatermarkContent does not wrap, and is cut off. Am I attempting to achieve this behavior in the wrong fashion, or is this behavior not possible with the RadWatermarkTextBox?
<telerik:RadWatermarkTextBox Height="100" VerticalContentAlignment="Top" TextWrapping="Wrap" AcceptsReturn="True" WatermarkContent="Enter new tags here separated by commas. They will all be applied when this window is closed." />This declaration gets me the desired text wrapping behavior for text typed in the box, but my WatermarkContent does not wrap, and is cut off. Am I attempting to achieve this behavior in the wrong fashion, or is this behavior not possible with the RadWatermarkTextBox?

Forgive me, I had an epiphany immediately after posting my question. WatermarkContent wrapping can be achieved using the following declaration:
<telerik:RadWatermarkTextBox Height="100" VerticalContentAlignment="Top" TextWrapping="Wrap" AcceptsReturn="True" >
<telerik:RadWatermarkTextBox.WatermarkTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="Enter new tags here separated by commas. They will all be applied when this window is closed." TextWrapping="Wrap" />
</DataTemplate>
</telerik:RadWatermarkTextBox.WatermarkTemplate>
</telerik:RadWatermarkTextBox>
