I'm trying to get an ItemsPanelTemplate working for a ListBox. The ListBox is used in a DataTemplate, and none of my implicit ListBox styles override the default visual style. For some reason, the ItemsPanelTemplate I'm specifiying for the control (a WrapPanel) is being ignored and a StackPanel is used instead.

This is the entire template, I can only assume there's something I'm missing which is causing this.

<DataTemplate x:Key="GroupLargeIconsTemplate" DataType="{x:Type Core:IGroup}">
    <ListBox ItemsSource="{Binding Children}" OverridesDefaultStyle="True">
        <ListBox.ItemsPanel>
            <ItemsPanelTemplate>
                <WrapPanel HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" IsItemsHost="True"  ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"
                           Width="{Binding (FrameworkElement.ActualWidth), RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=ScrollContentPresenter}}" />
            </ItemsPanelTemplate>
        </ListBox.ItemsPanel>
        <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
            <DataTemplate>
                <DataTemplate.Resources>
                    <conv:IconConverter x:Key="IconConverter"/>
                </DataTemplate.Resources>
                <StackPanel Margin="2" Width="100" Height="140">
                    <Image Source="{Binding Icon,Converter={StaticResource IconConverter},ConverterParameter=96}"/>
                    <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" TextWrapping="Wrap" TextTrimming="CharacterEllipsis" />
                </StackPanel>
            </DataTemplate>
        </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
    </ListBox>
</DataTemplate>

My guess is that the width property in the WrapPanel is making it behave as a Stackpanel.

I've inspected it with snoop and the element is actually a StackPanel.

After much frustration, the control template was overriding the ItemsPanel. Problem solved!
