Question

I am developing a metroapp using XAML and C#, and I’m using localization where text will be dynamic and differ from language to language. My code is structured as below – TextBlock inside Border.

<Border>
      <TextBlock Text="Foo">
      </TextBlock>
</Border>

So is there any way to change the height and width of the Border or TextBlock according to the size of the text?

Please help me. Thanks in advance

Do did this: (tested it quickly, should work)

                    <Border BorderBrush="AliceBlue" Background="SlateBlue" Width="{Binding ElementName=tb, Path=ActualWidth}" Height="{Binding ElementName=tb, Path=ActualHeight}">
                         <TextBlock FontSize="45" Name="tb" Text="12345" Foreground="AliceBlue"/>
                    </Border>
