Open issues

  • The pattern currently sets the HeightMode property of the control to SizeToAvailable. This can produce very tall string controls if the pattern is used in a SizeToAvailable container. We’re investigating whether this control should use SizeToContent height, or whether it should not set the property at all and should instead let the developer decide the appropriate control height.
