I have a simple grid layout which is just hosting several labels and textboxes. Labels in the first column, boxes in the second.

Whenever I add a new box, I have to add an empty <RowDefinition /> in to my <Grid.RowDefinitions> block to allow it to occupy a new row. Since I don’t have any style attached to these rows, is there some sort of shorthand that would prevent having to to this?

<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
  <ColumnDefinition Width="65" />
  <ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
  <RowDefinition />
  <RowDefinition />
  <RowDefinition />
  <RowDefinition />
  <RowDefinition />
  <RowDefinition />
  <RowDefinition />
  <RowDefinition />
  <RowDefinition />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>

    No, there isn’t a short hand method for this, but you could write your own solution, or use a framework where someone already has.

    For example, the CODE framework allows you to define markup as shown in Listing 6 here. This uses a custom panel to greatly simplify the definition of common editing forms.

    You could download the source and have a look at their implementation and tailor it for your needs.
