RichTextBox.TextWrapping Property

Silverlight

Gets or sets how text wrapping occurs if a line of text extends beyond the available width of the RichTextBox.

Namespace: System.Windows.Controls
Assembly: System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Copy

public TextWrapping TextWrapping { get; set; }

XAML Attribute Usage

Copy

<RichTextBox TextWrapping="Wrap"/>
-or-
<RichTextBox TextWrapping="NoWrap"/>

Property Value

Type: System.Windows.TextWrapping
One of the TextWrapping values. The default is Wrap.

Remarks

You should consider the width of the RichTextBox when you set the TextWrapping property. Any text that extends beyond the bounds of the RichTextBox will not be displayed. If the TextWrapping property is set to NoWrap, text that exceeds the horizontal bounds can be scrolled into view using the cursor. Text that exceeds vertically can be scrolled into view using the keyboard or scrollbar. If the TextWrapping property is set to Wrap, the HorizontalScrollBarVisibility property is automatically set to Disabled and any property changes to the HorizontalScrollBarVisibility are ignored.

Examples

The following XAML shows how to use the TextWrapping property.

XAML

Copy


<RichTextBox Margin="20,20,0,0" Width="300" Height="50" TextWrapping="Wrap" AcceptsReturn="True">
