Column marging on a WPF Grid - c#

I created a grid. On this grid, i have two colums with two TextBlock
I would like to insert a space between my columns, in order to having space between my textBlocks.
How doing this ?
Here is my code :
<ListBox x:Name="ListBoxTiers" HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Margin="0">
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Top">
<Grid Margin="10" VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition />
<RowDefinition />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition />
<ColumnDefinition />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<TextBlock Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" x:Name="TxtBox_CodeTiers" TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="{Binding m_strCode}" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Top" />
<TextBlock Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" x:Name="TxtBox_NomTiers" TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="{Binding m_strNom}" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Top" />
</Grid>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>
Thanks a lot :)

Instead of playing with the columnns, set a margin around the textbox.
<TextBox Margin="10">
You can set each side independently or set left/right and up/down:
<TextBox Margin="10, 3, 7, 0">
<TextBox Margin="10, 5">
Or wrap your TextBoxes inside another panel and set the margin there:
<Grid Margin="10">
<TextBox />
<TextBox />
</Grid>

WPF ItemsControl content cropping rather than scrolling

I have a .NET 4.0 WPF application using the MVVM pattern and I've been unable to achieve the desired outcome on one of the screens (UserControl as View). I have stripped down most of the page to show the core of the problem. The page consists of a grid with three rows and one column. The first row contains header text and the last row contains a Save button. The middle row contains a grid with one row and column and displays an ObservableCollection in an ItemsControl with a data template of a custom user control. There are ten items in the collection and I want them to display in two columns and five rows so I have a WrapPanel as an ItemsPanelTemplate.
I want the ItemsControl to scroll within the available space but it is expanding to the size of content and most of it is being cropped off the bottom of the page.
I am listing the XAML for user control the ObservableCollection uses as a data template and the XAML for the main page below that. Any help is greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Changed question title as I have removed the ScrollViewer between starting the question and actually posting it. Also, noticed the Save button was in the inner grid rather than outer grid so I have corrected that (no change in rendering).
An ItemsControl does not have its own ScrollViewer like a ListBox. You can either replace you ItemsControl with a ListBox, or simply wrap it in a ScrollViwer, being careful to move the Grid.Row and Grid.Column settings like this:
<ScrollViewer Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0">
<ItemsControl HorizontalAlignment="Left" ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Items,
UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged, Mode=TwoWay}"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ShopNotesComponentsTemplate}">
<ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<WrapPanel Width="300" />
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
</ItemsControl>
</ScrollViewer>

Horizontal ListView items do not scroll when swiped in WinRT app?

I have a C# WinRT/8.1 app that uses a ListView with a child stack panel to show items in a horizontal row. That works fine, except I am having the same problem discussed in this SO post:
WinRT Xaml ListView - Touch doesn't scroll well
Except worse. My items don't scroll even when the fingertip is pressed on the margin between items. Unfortunately I don't have a parent Panorama control or ScrollView control to blame. How can I fix this?
NOTE: I switched to a ListView from a GridView because of SO posts I read that indicated GridView's with horizontal items are problematic, which was the case for me.
Here is the XAML for the page:

I am not sure which directions you are trying to scroll, but I think your problem will be fixed if you disable the StackPanel scroll and enable scrolling in both directions on the ListView.
<ListView
x:Name="listviewVideomarks" Grid.Row="2" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Opacity="1" IsHitTestVisible="False" Margin="20"
ItemsSource="{Binding Videomarks.VideomarksCollection, Source={StaticResource Locator}}"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource HorzVideomarksItemTemplate1}" SelectionMode="None"
ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollMode="Auto" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollMode="Auto"
>
<ListView.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<StackPanel x:Name="stackVideomarksHorz" Orientation="Horizontal"
ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollMode="Disabled"
ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollMode="Disabled">
</StackPanel>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ListView.ItemsPanel>
</ListView>

StackPanel in Grid: limit height

I have a big main grid with several rows and columns. I want to place in one of these cells a vertical stackpanel. In this stackpanel there is a textblock and a scrollviewer. My problem is, that the stackpanel doesn't get limited by the cell, instead the stackpanel gets big enough to fit the whole scrollviewer.
How can I solve this?
EDIT: my xaml code:
<Grid x:Name="Grid1" Margin="120,0,0,0" Width="1244">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="0*"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="33*"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="40"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="50*"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="40"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="71"/>
<RowDefinition Height="40"/>
<RowDefinition/>
<RowDefinition Height="20"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<StackPanel Grid.Column="3" Grid.Row="2" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Margin="0">
<TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" FontSize="48" Margin="0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Foreground="#FF0083FF" Text="Top 10:" HorizontalAlignment="Left" FontFamily="Segoe UI Light"/>
<ScrollViewer Margin="0,20,0,0" HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible">
<StackPanel>
<ListView x:Name="TopListView" ItemsSource="{Binding}" SelectionMode="None" Foreground="White" >
<ListView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<StackPanel >
<TextBlock FontSize="32" Text="1" Foreground="#FF0083FF"/>
</StackPanel>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Text}" Foreground="Black"
FontSize="16" Margin="0,0,0,0" TextWrapping="Wrap" />
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>
</StackPanel>
</ScrollViewer>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
Use another Grid instead of a StackPanel:
<Grid Grid.Column="3" Grid.Row="2" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Margin="0">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>
<RowDefinition/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBlock FontSize="48" FontFamily="Segoe UI Light"
Foreground="#FF0083FF" HorizontalAlignment="Left"
TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="Top 10:"/>
<ScrollViewer Grid.Row="1" Margin="0,20,0,0"
HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible">
...
</ScrollViewer>
</Grid >

how to manage tile usercontrols(having listbox binding) in MVVM model?

//this is usercontrol code
<ListBox Name="OvernightAverageListBox" ItemsSource="{Binding Path=OvernightAverageCollections}" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" >
<ListBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Name="items" Background="{Binding BackColor}" Height="200" Width="200">
<TextBlock Height="46" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="26,10,0,0" Name="currentRate" Text="{Binding Current_rate}" VerticalAlignment="Top" FontSize="36" />
<TextBlock Height="22" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="26,20,0,0" Name="rate_difference" Text="{Binding RateChange_Value}" VerticalAlignment="Top" FontSize="20" />
<TextBlock Height="30" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="26,30,0,0" Name="productName" Text="{Binding Product_name}" VerticalAlignment="Top" FontSize="24" />
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ListBox.ItemTemplate>
//this is binding code on view
<controls:PanoramaItem Header="Overnight Average" Tap="RateTile_Tap">
<Grid x:Name="overnightAverage">
<views:OvernightAverageTileControl x:Name="eventsView"> </views:OvernightAverageTileControl>
</Grid>
</controls:PanoramaItem>
</ListBox>
now acoording to my code the tiles are coming vertically means each tile is taking in one row.
but i want them to come both horizontally and vertically means two tiles in each row.
plz share ur suggetion i am new to xaml designing.
first image shows wat i am getting.
second image is wat i want.
thanks :)
You could replace the StackPanel in your DataTemplate by a Grid:
<DataTemplate>
<Grid Name="items" Background="{Binding BackColor}" Height="200" Width="200">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition/>
<ColumnDefinition/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition/>
<RowDefinition/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="0" Text="{Binding Current_rate}" ... />
<TextBlock Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="0" Text="{Binding RateChange_Value}" ... />
<TextBlock Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="1" Text="{Binding Product_name}" ... />
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
You may also specify absolute or relative widths of the columns and heights of the rows by setting the ColumnDefinition.Width and the RowDefinition.Height properties.
I have done it successfully using WrapPanel in toolkit oct 2011.

Access and modify properties of grid row within data template

I have difficulty accessing a grid or its rows(within a ListBox), despite defining the grid's or row's name. I intend to set a new MaxHeight to one of its rows when some parameter is passed in from a SharePoint browsable property to the Silverlight control.
How may i achieve the desired effect? Binding perhaps?

}
I believe that StaffNews is representing one item in your list, right?
In that case, to assign a value to a property, use:
test.StaffNewsBodyHeight = 200;
to replace the last line of your snippet.
[P.S. - StaffNewsBodyHeight is a dependency property defined in StaffNews, right?]
