Title Body

I am trying to modify my simple control so that the text box does not grow as the user types in long text. I took a look at some solutions posted here at Stackoverflow that suggest using a Grid and an invisible Border and binding the Width of the text box to the ActualWidth of the Border, but I can't seem to get it to work in my setup. Here is the xaml of my control: <StackPanel Margin="5,0"> <WrapPanel Margin="0,0,0,5"> <TextBlock Foreground="White" Margin="0,0,2,0">TEXT</TextBlock> <TextBlock Foreground="#FF0099CC" FontWeight="Bold">MORE TEXT</TextBlock> </WrapPanel> <Border Margin="2,4,0,4" BorderThickness="1" SnapsToDevicePixels="True" Background="Black" BorderBrush="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.ControlDarkBrushKey}}"> <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"> <Image Source="..\Resources\zoom.png" Width="13"/> <TextBox Foreground="White" Background="Black" BorderBrush="Transparent">THIS IS SOME TEXT</TextBox> </StackPanel> </Border> </StackPanel> Any ideas? I need the zoom.png to appear "inside" of the text box so I use a horizontal stack panel and just place the image and text box side by side, both surrounded by the same border. Is there a way for me to stop my text box from auto growing as text is typed? Thanks. UPDATE: Below is the xaml I am testing with. <Window x:Class="Desktop.Shell" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:composite="http://www.codeplex.com/CompositeWPF" Title="MyShell" Height="50" Width="900" WindowStyle="None" ShowInTaskbar="False" AllowsTransparency="True" Background="Transparent" ResizeMode="CanResizeWithGrip" WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen"> <Border BorderB
