I have an image with a large amount of text to the right in a textblock control. How can I get that text to wrap on the right and below the image?

  • Are you saying that ur image is inside the textblock?? – Amresh Kumar Mar 29 '11 at 06:51
  • No it's not in the textblock, right now both the image and textblock are wrapped inside a stackpanel. I would like the text to keep wrapping on the right side of the image and eventually wrap below it. – Tyler Mar 30 '11 at 14:53

The standard TextBlock and Image controls wouldn't work for you.

I think you'd either:

  • have to use HTML inside a WebBrowser (this is potentially very slow and ugly!)
  • have to use multiple TextBlock's and you'd have to measure the text in order to implement the wrapping out yourself.

It might be an idea to consider a different layout - is the text really free flowing and needs wrapped around the image? Or can the text be split up into header, caption, body, etc?

  • The text is already split up into different pieces. It's a description of the picture that I wanted to wrap. – Tyler Mar 30 '11 at 15:02
