WordWrap in PanelBar

[Kakone]

Hello,

I have a panel bar like this :

<telerikNavigation:RadPanelBar DataContext="{Binding Menu}" ItemsSource="{Binding MenuItems}" SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedMenuItem, Mode=TwoWay}" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled">
  <telerikNavigation:RadPanelBar.ItemTemplate>
    <telerik:HierarchicalDataTemplate ItemsSource="{Binding Items}">
      <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" >
        <Image Source="{Binding Image, Converter={StaticResource BitmapImageConverter}}" Margin="5 3 5 3" />
        <TextBlock Text="{Binding Text}" VerticalAlignment="Center" TextWrapping="Wrap" />
      </StackPanel>
    </telerik:HierarchicalDataTemplate>
  </telerikNavigation:RadPanelBar.ItemTemplate>
</telerikNavigation:RadPanelBar>

All is perfect except the text wrapping. The text is always on one line.

An idea to accomplish this ?

Cordially,
Stephane.

Hello Kakone,

The issue is caused by the StackPanel used in the DataTemplate. Since the StackPanel thinks its children have unlimited size no wrap is applied. However, you can replace it with a Grid with defined width for the TextBlock, like so:

<telerik:HierarchicalDataTemplate ItemsSource="{Binding Items}">
     <Grid >
        <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
              <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
              <ColumnDefinition Width="200"/>
        </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <Image Source="{Binding Image, Converter={StaticResource BitmapImageConverter}}" Margin="5 3 5 3" />
        <TextBlock Text="{Binding Text}" VerticalAlignment="Center" TextWrapping="Wrap" Grid.Column="1"/>
     </Grid>
</telerik:HierarchicalDataTemplate>

Give this approach a try and let me know if it works for you.

Hello,

Indeed, I'm stupid (sorry :-)). With a grid, it works better.
As I don't want to fix the width, I do this :

<Grid.RowDefinitions>
  <RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
  <RowDefinition Height="*" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>

 And it works fine !

Very thanks,
Kakone.
