Question

Adding a linebreak/new line to a WPF Wrap Panel

Answer 1

+3 A:

This is a line break in a WrapPanel:

<WrapPanel>
    <TextBlock Text="&#xD;"/>
</WrapPanel>

Update

I think I figured out what you're trying to ask. If you have a WrapPanel that is laying out by row, and you want to force it to the next row, you can replace the single WrapPanel with

 <StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
  <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
   <!-- items -->
  </StackPanel>
  <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
   <!-- items -->
  </StackPanel>
  <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
   <!-- items -->
  </StackPanel>
 </StackPanel>

If you want to preserve wrapping of individual rows, you can use WrapPanels inside the vertical StackPanel.

Yes, your update is exactly what I'm thinking! The only problem I have now is that I am adding element programatically like this: `wrapPanel.childern.add(element)`. However, if I create a new stackpanel for every line break, I have to change `wrapPanel/stackPanel` to `stackPanel2`. Is there a way to add elements to the newest panel?

@DMan `WrapPanel latestPanel = new WrapPanel();` Every time you create a new `StackPanel` or `WrapPanel`, assign it to `latestPanel`, and then add children to it.

That seems to work, thanks!
