Edit : I realized what the problem is, when I add the border, The second TextBlock sits on top of the first TextBlock. Still have to figure out why this is happening.
Original question:
I have a number of TextBlocks in my xaml. I want to add a border around some textblocks. I tried the following methods.
Method 1:
<Style x:Key="BorderForTextBlock" TargetType="{x:Type Border}">
<Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1" />
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Black" />
</Style>
<TextBlock1../>
<Border Style="{StaticResource BorderForTextBlock}">
<TextBlock2.../>
</Border>
Method 2:
<TextBlock1../> //This is where the border is added.
<Border BorderThickness="1" BorderBrush="Black">
<TextBlock2 ..../> //This is where I want to add the border
</Border>
A border is added only to the first TextBlock in the xaml no matter to which TextBlock I add the border. I don't want the border on the first TextBlock. I have no clue why this is happening.
This is my xaml :
<Grid Background="LightYellow" >
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" ></ColumnDefinition>
<ColumnDefinition Width="3.5*"></ColumnDefinition>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="28*" ></RowDefinition>
<RowDefinition Height="120*" ></RowDefinition>
<RowDefinition Height="28*"></RowDefinition>
<RowDefinition Height="74*"></RowDefinition>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBlock Grid.Row="0" Margin="10,0,5,0" FontWeight="SemiBold" Text="{x:Static res:Resources.source1"/>
<Border BorderBrush="Black" BorderThickness="1">
<TextBlock x:Name="txtBlock1" FormatTest:FormattedTextBehavior.FormattedText="{Binding Path= content1}" Margin="0,0,0,0" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" TextWrapping="Wrap"/>
</Border>
<TextBlock Grid.Row="1" Margin="10,0,5,0" FontWeight="SemiBold" Text="{x:Static res:Resources.source2}"/>
<RichTextBox Background="LightYellow" Margin="0,0,0,0" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll="True" Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="1" IsReadOnly="True" >
<FlowDocument>
<Paragraph>
<Run Text="{Binding content2, Mode=TwoWay}"/>
</Paragraph>
</FlowDocument>
</RichTextBox>
<TextBlock Grid.Row="2" Margin="10,0,5,0" FontWeight="SemiBold" Text="{x:Static res:Resources.source3"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding content3, Mode=TwoWay}" Margin="0,0,0,0" Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="1" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll="True" TextWrapping="Wrap"/>
<TextBlock Grid.Row="3" Margin="10,0,5,0" FontWeight="SemiBold" Text="{x:Static res:Resources.source4}"/>
<TextBox Text="{Binding content4, Mode=TwoWay}" Margin="0,0,0,0" Grid.Row="3" Grid.Column="1" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"
ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll="True" TextAlignment="Left" TextWrapping="Wrap" Background="LightYellow" IsReadOnly="True"/>
</Grid>
instead of
<Border BorderBrush="Black" BorderThickness="1">
<TextBlock x:Name="txtBlock1" FormatTest:FormattedTextBehavior.FormattedText="{Binding Path= content1}" Margin="0,0,0,0" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" TextWrapping="Wrap"/>
</Border>
Have
<Border Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" BorderBrush="Black" BorderThickness="1">
<TextBlock x:Name="txtBlock1" FormatTest:FormattedTextBehavior.FormattedText="{Binding Path= content1}" Margin="0,0,0,0" TextWrapping="Wrap"/>
</Border>
This should solve the issue with placement of text blocks
This is how it looks at my end

You can use style with trigger and put the style either in windows resources or app resources depending upon scope you want

Conditional style in WPF. Adding border to two textblocks only. You can apply style and add to as many as you want

I’m building a MVVM app using .Net 4.7.2 that works like a wizard (based on https://www.codeproject.com/KB/WPF/InternationalizedWizard.aspx?display=Print), so no additional frameworks, just the RelayCommand class, a MainWindow.cs that hosts the Main view (the view that has navigation items of the wizard on the left side, and the right side area that hosts the subviews which display based on the stage of the wizard).
Mi issue is that one of my users is experiencing a very strange behaviour with the controls. This is a sample photo of what the application should look like:
And this is a sample photo of what happens to the user. Notice that the image on the bottom left disappears, the bar on the bottom left also disappears, the heading and top text have moved up and clipped inside the window, and the rest of the content in the right side disappears.
Similar to the base InternationalizedWizard App I placed the controls in a grid that has horizontal + vertical alignment set to stretch. The
<Border Background="White" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="0">
<ScrollViewer>
<HeaderedContentControl Content="{Binding Path=CurrentPage}" Header="{Binding Path=CurrentPage.DisplayName}" />
</ScrollViewer>
</Border>
I applied this style to the HeaderedContentControl:
<Style TargetType="{x:Type HeaderedContentControl}">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type HeaderedContentControl}">
<StackPanel Margin="2,0">
<Grid Margin="1,1,1,12" RenderTransformOrigin="0.5,0.5">
<Rectangle Fill="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.AppWorkspaceBrushKey}}" Height="3" Margin="10,-4" Opacity="0.6" RadiusX="8" RadiusY="8" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" />
<ContentPresenter ContentSource="Header" TextBlock.FontSize="22" TextBlock.FontWeight="DemiBold" TextBlock.Foreground="Black" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" OpacityMask="Black" />
<Grid.Effect>
<DropShadowEffect Opacity="0.1" />
</Grid.Effect>
<Grid.RenderTransform>
<RotateTransform Angle="0" />
</Grid.RenderTransform>
</Grid>
<Grid>
<Rectangle Fill="{TemplateBinding Background}" />
<ContentPresenter ContentSource="Content" />
</Grid>
</StackPanel>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
The scrollviewer only scrolls up and down if the content is large, but in this case the content should fit fine so as expected the user won't see the scrollviewer.
The image from the bottom left that strangely disappear was placed in the column 0, row 0 of the grid a custom margin so it remains in that area:
<Image Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="0" Source="..\Assets\SplashLogo.png" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Stretch="None" Margin="20,20,20,20"/>
The first page (e.g. Welcome) that displays has another grid with two
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition MinHeight="30" MaxHeight="60"/>
<RowDefinition Height="*" MinHeight="200"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBlock Grid.Row="0" Text="{x:Static res:Strings.SomeText_Description}" FontSize="15" FontWeight="Light" Margin="20,0,20,0" TextWrapping="Wrap" />
<StackPanel Grid.Row="1" Orientation="Horizontal" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
<Label Content="{x:Static res:Strings.WelcomeView_SomeText}" FontSize="15" FontWeight="Light" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" Margin="20,0,20,0" />
<TextBox Text="{Binding Path=SomeInput, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" Height="25" Width="200" FontSize="15" FontWeight="Light" HorizontalAlignment="Left">
<TextBox.InputBindings>
<KeyBinding Key="Enter" Command="{Binding MoveNextFromWelcomeCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding Path=Text, RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType={x:Type TextBox}}}" />
</TextBox.InputBindings>
</TextBox>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
But the contents of the stack panel completely disappear of view.
Finally, the bottom area of the main view is created in a border like this one, which also completely disappears from view:
<Border Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="1" Background="LightGray" Grid.ColumnSpan="2">
<Grid >
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="*" />
<RowDefinition Height="*" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="5" Margin="4" FontSize="15" Text="{Binding Path=ReportStatus}" VerticalAlignment="Center" Visibility="{Binding Path=ShowReportStatus}" />
<!-- NAVIGATION BUTTONS -->
<Grid Grid.Column="2" Grid.Row="0" Grid.IsSharedSizeScope="True" HorizontalAlignment="Right" >
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition SharedSizeGroup="Buttons" />
<ColumnDefinition SharedSizeGroup="Buttons" />
<ColumnDefinition SharedSizeGroup="Buttons" />
<ColumnDefinition SharedSizeGroup="Buttons" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Button Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="0" Command="{Binding Path=MovePreviousCommand}" Style="{StaticResource movePreviousButtonStyle}" />
<Button Grid.Column="2" Grid.Row="0" Command="{Binding Path=MoveNextCommand}" Style="{StaticResource moveNextButtonStyle}" />
<Button Grid.Column="3" Grid.Row="0" Command="{Binding Path=CancelCommand}" Style="{StaticResource cancelButtonStyle}" />
</Grid>
</Grid>
</Border>
I initially thought there could be an issue with the version of .NET or OS, but my users has the latest version of Windows 10 Enterprise (10.0.17134) and dual screen with 1: 3840x2160 2: 2560x1600. I have tried to replicate that on my own computer but everything works fine for me. I also tested the App in Windows 7 and it works with no issues.
I really don't understand what could be happening, does it have anything to do with the user's DPI settings or any accessibility feature?

I needed to implement a third party solution for a vitalizing warp panel. The first two I tried didn't work because of this error message:
' ...should not return PositiveInfinity as its DesiredSize, even if
Infinity is passed in as available size.'
So next I went to a commercial solution which gave me the exact same error. So clearly there is something wrong with my code. But no matter what I try, the problem persists. To note, I tried the last solution with a basic example and that did indeed work.
I presume that one of my controls are the problem, perhaps needing to stipulate the dimensions, but, I have tried that on every relevant control. Below is the code. It is a ListBox inside a Grid using a data template.

The answer was to set the MaxHeight on the <ItemsPresenter /> inside the GroupStyle so it new it was not going to go on forever

When I run the application with it enabled (uncommended) the empty listbox indeed display the message.
But when they are filled the item template is wider than it should be.
This is an example where I use a listbox:
<ListBox x:Name="DataGridTraffic"
Grid.Row="1"
SnapsToDevicePixels="True"
ItemsSource="{Binding Path=TrafficJams}"
ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Hidden"
SelectedIndex="-1"
ItemTemplate="{DynamicResource TrafficJamDataTemplateShort}"
AlternationCount="2"
BorderThickness="0"
HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch"
ItemContainerStyle="{DynamicResource MainListBoxStyle}" />
Does anyone have a clue on what is going on?
Edit:
The first image shows how it is when I enable the trigger.
The second shows the way it is supposed to be.
Edit:
Here is some more as asked for.
This is the Datatemplate for the same thing as the pictures.

I tried using <Style TargetType="ListBoxItem"> instead of <Style TargetType="Border"> which worked but it's not what i want, i want the Border background of that listboxitem changed but i can't seem to access it. Any help would be appreciated.
It's not working because you have the BorderBrush hard-coded in the attribute, which takes precedence. Update so that the style is not a resource, and add the Trigger to the Border itself.

I have a problem with my ListBox. I have written several DataTemplates which I use in a ListBox. Each one of these contains a grid and may contain a nested ListBox depending on the item.
My problem is: The height of these nested ListBoxes seem to be different to the root ListBox's height. Additionally it seems, that there is sometimes one pixel margin to the element above.
Has someone encountered this problem, too and maybe solved it?
XAML-Code:
<!-- Template for SubData-Items -->
<DataTemplate x:Key="DataTemplate">
<Grid x:Name="baseGrid" Grid.Column="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="999" Background="Violet">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="{Binding ElementName=Col0, Path=Width}" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="{Binding ElementName=Col1, Path=Width}" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="{Binding ElementName=Row0, Path=Height}"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="1" Text="{Binding Bezeichnung}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Center" FontSize="12" />
<Line Grid.ColumnSpan="999" Stroke="Black" X1="0" X2="{Binding ElementName=baseGrid, Path=ActualWidth, Mode=OneWay}" Y1="0" Y2="0" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" />
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
<!-- Template for Items -->
<DataTemplate x:Key="GroupDataTemplate">
<Grid Grid.ColumnSpan="999" Background="Blue">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="{Binding ElementName=Gantt, Path=GridRowHeight}" />
<RowDefinition Height="*"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid x:Name="baseGrid" Grid.Column="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="999">

</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="{Binding ElementName=Row0, Path=Height}"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="1" Text="{Binding Bezeichnung}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Center" FontSize="12" />
</Grid>
<Grid x:Name="expandedGrid" Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="999">

qqbenq gave a very nice solution . Here is another way to do it.
the control templates of ListBox and ListBoxItem has padding inside their borders. Thankfully ListBoxItem border's padding can be control by a style like so:
<Style
TargetType="ListBoxItem">
<Setter
Property="Padding"
Value="0" />
</Style>
but unfortunately for the ListBox , you will have to override the default template with all of its details to change its internal border's hard-coded padding like this:
<Style
TargetType="ListBox">
<Setter
Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate
TargetType="{x:Type ListBox}">
<Border
x:Name="Bd"
BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"
BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}"
Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"
Padding="0"
SnapsToDevicePixels="true">
<ScrollViewer
Focusable="false"
Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}">
<ItemsPresenter
SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding SnapsToDevicePixels}" />
</ScrollViewer>
</Border>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger
Property="IsEnabled"
Value="false">
<Setter
Property="Background"
TargetName="Bd"
Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.ControlBrushKey}}" />
</Trigger>
<Trigger
Property="IsGrouping"
Value="true">
<Setter
Property="ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll"
Value="false" />
</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
</Style>
One last note : remove the Margin that you added inside your xaml.
Solution complete
Add a Margin="-2,0,0,0" and a Padding="-1" to your "LBMaGruppen" named ListBox.
<ListBox x:Name="LBMaGruppen" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource DataTemplate}" ItemsSource="{Binding SubdataObjects}"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch" Height="Auto" Margin="-2,0,0,0" Padding="-1"
ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll="false" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled" ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled" BorderThickness="0" />
Also, the "root" element's height is binded to {Binding ElementName=Gantt, Path=GridRowHeight}, while the "sub" element's height to {Binding ElementName=Row0, Path=Height}, so this must cause the difference.
It seems that you have auto height set on all your ListBox. You could try setting the height to a specific size. EDIT: I see you already have ScrollViewer settings. I think setting the height of the box to a specific size instead of auto will do what you want.
As to the padding between elements see the ListBox.ItemContainerSyle which should allow you to set the margin between elements.
