I want to make a ItemsControl so I can put bound a list of items. I want items (say thumbmail image) display from left to right, then top and down. If the window resizes the number of items per row will automatically adjusted, something like the behavior in HTML when I set the style.float=left

 Anybody knows how I define the ItemsControl template to achieve this?  Thank!

Since there is no wrap panel built in, you can create your own, or find someone else's online, like here as a base:

Then use that as your items panel in your ItemsControl.

Hope this helps.

 Thanks Bill, that's exactly  what I want.

1) Add a new Tab "My Siverlight Controls" on the toolbox.

2) Right Click the new "My Siverlight Controls"  Tab click "choose items" to open "Choose Toolbox Items" window.

3) Click the Silverlight Tab. Click browse button to find your siliverlight project (or silverlight control library project) dll which contains the WrapPanel control. Click open. The controls of that project will be added to the list. You can select the WrapPanel to be added to the toolbox. Now you can drag the WrapPanel to your XAML.
