如何限制ListView中单元格的长度？

Question

I have such a list view

And there is a .xalm

...
<ListView
                x:Name="LVLog"
                ToolTip="Log of task(s) execution"
                Background="WhiteSmoke"
                HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
                VerticalAlignment="Stretch"/>
...

And there is how I add items in LVLog

LVLog.Items.Add(message.Log);

As you can see if line a long enough it goes out of the borders and user need to scroll horizontaly in order to read log up to the end.

Question is: is there is a way to write line at the next line if it came to the borders?

Answer 1

You could use a TextBlock as an ItemTemplate and set TextTrimming on it. So the text will be trimmed

Long long lo..

and the full text you will see in tooltip:

<ListView ItemsSource="{Binding YourCollection}" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled" >
    <ListView.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding ...}" TextTrimming="CharacterEllipsis" ToolTip="{Binding ...}"/>
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>

If you want to have more lines, then just set TextWrapping="Wrap" in the TextBlock :

<ListView ItemsSource="{Binding YourCollection}" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled" >
    <ListView.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding ...}" TextWrapping="Wrap"/>
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>
