WatermarkTextBox Width Grow

[gerardo]

Good day.

I am using a WatermarkTextBox inside a Grid. The WatermarkTextBox width depends on the Grid's width. I am using HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"

What is happening is when i input long text in my WatermarkTextBox, the textbox is growing. I don't want this to happen. 

I can't set a fixed width for the WatermarkTextBox since I need it to adjust based on the Grid's width. I just want the textbox Not to grow when I input long text.

How can I achieve this?

Thank you.

Any idea how can I prevent the Textbox grow when I input long text?

Hello Gerardo,

Thank you for the shared information. 

Can you check out the following thread: Prevent a TextBox from horizontal expanding in WPF, where this scenario has been discussed? Note, that it is for the native TextBox control, however the RadWatermarkTextBox inherits it and the suggestions apply to it. 

I hope you find this helpful.

Thanks for that Vladimir. Got the idea to bind the MaxWidth of the RadWatermarkTextBox to the Grid.

Thank you
