You cannot set this property in XAML.

Property Value

Type: System.Double
The current width of the column. The default is zero (0.0).

You can use this property to get the current width of the GridViewColumn when the Width property is set to Double.NaN. A value of Double.NaN for the Width property specifies that the column size accommodate the largest visible item that is not the column header.

Unlike FrameworkElement.ActualWidth, GridViewColumn.ActualWidth is not a dependency property.
