Question

I’m in the process of learning WPF and I have a problem with a groupbox (without a height and width specified) taking up more space on the form than it needs.

From researching a few other posts on here (such as this) I know that controls like groupboxes will expand to fill their container.

Is there a way of specifying in WPF that you’d like the form to automatically size to fit all of its components based on a total of their individual sizes? It seems a bit odd that if I’m using DockPanels that size to fit their components that the main window needs to be told the correct height and width.

Answer 1

You can set SizeToContent to WidthAndHeight on the window.
