Pretty simple (note: Silverlight)
<ItemsPanelTemplate x:Key="ItemsPanelTemplate1">
<toolkit:WrapPanel/>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
...
<ListBox DataContext="{Binding}"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ItemTemplate}"
ItemsSource="{Binding Collection}"
ItemsPanel="{StaticResource ItemsPanelTemplate1}"
/>

Subject: RE: Address Cards style display
Would you consider using a ListBox, and just swapping between two ItemsPanel
templates? One a StackPanel (the default) and one a WrapPanel? I've just never
done that at runtime...
I'd prefer to use a real grid for the details view, as it has fancy features
like selected row template, column clicking, etc.
However, you've reminded me that the ListBox probably can be re-templated to
use a WrapPanel is its container and the items can be converted into things
that looks like address labels. I think a lot of people forget that you can
completely subvert familiar WPF controls and turn them into other weird
appearances.
I guess a starting point would be to extract the template of the standard
ListBox and see how it works and how I can change it (and break it).
I just have to find an example of someone who's done something like you
describe with a ListBox and its items, then I can coax it over to what I want.
Any samples you've seen? I'll go looking now.
Greg
