WPF Grid Panel The grid is a layout panel that arranges its child controls in a tabular structure of rows and columns. Its similar to the HTML table tr and td tags we can set the rows in grid with the help of "Grid.RowDefinitions" and set columns with the help of "Grid.ColumnDefinitions". we just need to add "RowDefinition" and "ColumnDefinition" as per our requirement as below

Below just write down a WPF Grid Layout with two reows and two columns

.xaml <grid> <Grid.RowDefinitions> <rowdefinition Height="1*"/> <rowdefinition Height="1*"/> </Grid.RowDefinitions> <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <columndefinition Width="1*" /> <columndefinition Width="1*" /> </Grid.ColumnDefinitions> </Grid> Output

We can position the controls inside the Grid using Grid.Column and Grid.Row as Below

.xaml <grid> <Grid.RowDefinitions> <rowdefinition Height="1*"/> <rowdefinition Height="1*"/> <rowdefinition Height="1*"/> <rowdefinition Height="1*"/> </Grid.RowDefinitions> <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <columndefinition Width="1*" /> <columndefinition Width="1*" /> </Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <textblock Text="First Name" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="0"/> <textbox Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="0"/> <textblock Text="First Name" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="1"/> <textbox Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1"/> <textblock Text="Age" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="2"/> <textbox Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="2"/> <textblock Text="Gender" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="3"/> <combobox Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="3"/> </Grid> Output
