WPF: Horizontally aligned collection with items of uniform width

Question

I have a variable number of items bound from view model that need to be displayed horizontally and be selectable. Each item is represented by a text, these texts vary in length. When I use a list view with a StackPanel with horizontal orientation as its ItemTemplate, the items are only as wide as the text inside. Is there a way to make them all the same size, meaning the size of the widest one? Ideally without some complex codebehind, using item templates and such? Note: I can't set some arbitrary minimum width, because I don't know what length the texts can ultimately have (different languages etc)

Answer 1

you can use ListBox which has selection support with UniformGrid as ItemsPanel. UniformGrid will allocate equal space for each element

<ListBox>
    <ListBox.ItemsPanel>
        <ItemsPanelTemplate>
            <UniformGrid Rows="1"/>
        </ItemsPanelTemplate>
    </ListBox.ItemsPanel>

    <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <Label Content="{Binding}"/>
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
</ListBox>
