An unexpected behavior occurs when set a long string in the TextBox

2024-07-23T20:12:29.08+00:00

Hello,

This problem happens when I try to put a string with a length greater than 15.684 characters.

The height of TextBox increases abruptly and the TextBox turns into non-editable.

Please, help me handle it

Universal Windows Platform (UWP)
XAML
XAML
A language based on Extensible Markup Language (XML) that enables developers to specify a hierarchy of objects with a set of properties and logic.

    Hi @Rayane Thaís Gomes de Lima France ,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

    It is recommended that you use text wrapping and vertical scrollbars to solve this problem.

    TextBox Enable multi-line input

     <TextBox AcceptsReturn="True" 
              TextWrapping="Wrap" 
              MaxHeight="52" 
              ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"/>
    

    Thank you.
