WPF: Is it possible to do a row/column span in UniformGrid?

Is it possible to do a row/column span in UniformGrid? Using Grid attached properties

Grid.RowSpan

and

Grid.ColumnSpan

doesn't work on UniformGrid.

If they did exist, they would be UniformGrid.RowSpan and UniformGrid.ColumnSpan, since you are not using a Grid – Abele 15/5, 2012 at 16:3

No. There are no attached properties that will allow you to do that.

You could create a subclass of the UniformGrid and add them but you would have to handle all the arranging of the child controls.

It will be pretty hard to define what should happen to elements that span multiple columns when they have to wrap to the next line.

It seems to me that this has changed in the meantime, see learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/communitytoolkit/controls/… – Kenti 23/3, 2022 at 10:16

@h.m.i.13: I do not see the ColumnSpan nor the RowSpan in the documentation you linked to. – Indian 23/3, 2022 at 10:50

@Kenti It looks like that is for UWP and provided as part of Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.UI.Controls – Eliezer 27/4, 2022 at 23:18
