ListBox Control - Create Custom Layouts (Vertical and Horizontal)

There are no anymore multicolumn property in WPF ListBox, like in WinForm.

There are couple of more flexible options. Following please find how to add custom layouts to ListBox:

You have couple of options:

1.       DockPanel

2.       StackPanle

3.       WrapPanel

And supposed you have:

ListBox myListBox = new ListBox();

FrameworkElementFactory factory = new FrameworkElementFactory(typeof(WrapPanel));

factory.SetValue(WrapPanel.HorizontalAlignmentProperty, HorizontalAlignment.Left); //not necessary
myListBox.ItemsPanel = new ItemsPanelTemplate(factory);

and change it back to default ListBox layout that you see regulary:

FrameworkElementFactory factory = new FrameworkElementFactory(typeof(StackPanel));

factory.SetValue(StackPanel.OrientationProperty, Orientation.Vertical);

myListBox.ItemsPanel = new ItemsPanelTemplate(factory);

May be more difficult, but more flexible, isn't it? J
