# WPF Datagrid Autoresize on Maximize

My [WPF](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/304/wpf) [application](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12824/calculator-application-in-android) has a [resolution](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12502/looking-for-an-mba-degree-we-guide-you-with-the-perfect-resolution) of 1024x768. I have a datagrid that fills a [vertical](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/12951/how-to-fix-bootstrap-tab-vertical-with-text) half of the application. In higher resolutions, when I maximize I want the datagrid to automatically resize vertically and fill the entire height. How can I do this?

Hi Royce,\
You can try setting the control's vertical alignment to stretch (VeritcalAlignment="Stretch") so that even when your window resizes, it still fills up the vertical part of your screen.
