I know how to do it in code, but can this be done in XAML ?
Window1.xaml:
<Window x:Class="WpfApplication1.Window1"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="Window1" Height="300" Width="300">
<Grid>
<ComboBox Name="ComboBox1" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top">
<ComboBoxItem>ComboBoxItem1</ComboBoxItem>
<ComboBoxItem>ComboBoxItem2</ComboBoxItem>
</ComboBox>
</Grid>
</Window>
Window1.xaml.cs:
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
namespace WpfApplication1
{
public partial class Window1 : Window
{
public Window1()
{
InitializeComponent();
double width = 0;
foreach (ComboBoxItem item in ComboBox1.Items)
{
item.Measure(new Size(
double.PositiveInfinity, double.PositiveInfinity));
if (item.DesiredSize.Width > width)
width = item.DesiredSize.Width;
}
ComboBox1.Measure(new Size(
double.PositiveInfinity, double.PositiveInfinity));
ComboBox1.Width = ComboBox1.DesiredSize.Width + width;
}
}
}
