# Text wrapping not working in wpf.

HI [mindstick](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/84668/how-mindstick-is-used-for-marketing-purposes)!

I got this XAML [code](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/85458/alan-turing-the-mastermind-behind-cracking-the-enigma-code-during-world-war-ii) and I've been [trying](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/93698/6-mistakes-couples-are-trying-to-save-money) to get it working for a few [hours](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/101444/who-s-the-youngest-winner-of-the-le-mans-24-hours-race) now (I'm pretty new to WPF). I basically want the text in the TextBlock to line break if there's not [enough](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/48601/who-is-the-writer-of-the-one-life-is-not-enough) room for it.

<Grid>

<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<ColumnDefinition Width="60" />

<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />

</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="{Binding Path=[content](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/13019/get-the-best-content-marketing-pricing-packages-for-your-brand)}" Grid.Column="1" />

</Grid>

Thanks!

Hi!you may try this

I basically set the Grid **ColumnDefinition** width to a fixed one and it works now.
