The result is shown in Figure 5-5. Figure 5-5. A scrollable window CHAPTER 5 n CONTENT 126 If you resize the window in this example so that it??™s large enough to fit all its content, the scroll bar becomes disabled. However, the scroll bar will still be visible. You can control this behavior by setting the VerticalScrollBarVisibility property, which takes a value from the ScrollBarVisibility enumeration. The default value of Visible makes sure the vertical scroll bar is always present. Use Auto if you want the scroll bar to appear when it??™s needed and disappear when it??™s not. Or use Disabled if you don??™t want the scroll bar to appear at all. nNote You can also use Hidden, which is similar to Disabled but subtly different. First, content with a hidden scroll bar is still scrollable. (For example, you can scroll through the content using the arrow keys.) Second, the content in a ScrollViewer is laid out differently. When you use Disabled, you tell the content in the ScrollViewer that it has only as much space as the ScrollViewer itself.
