    <ScrollViewer Height="200" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto">

    </ScrollViewer>

I read articles on making the ScrollViewer automatically scroll but that will make my TextBox scroll to the end which won’t allow editing text somewhere in the middle as it will jump to the end as soon as a key is typed.
