# How to: Create a Multiline TextBox Control
|
|
This example shows how to use Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML) to define a <xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox> control that will automatically expand to accommodate multiple lines of text.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
Setting the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox.TextWrapping%2A> attribute to **Wrap** will cause entered text to wrap to a new line when the edge of the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox> control is reached, automatically expanding the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox> control to include room for a new line, if necessary.
|
|
|
|
Setting the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Primitives.TextBoxBase.AcceptsReturn%2A> attribute to **true** causes a new line to be inserted when the RETURN key is pressed, once again automatically expanding the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox> to include room for a new line, if necessary.
|
|
|
|
The <xref:System.Windows.Controls.Primitives.TextBoxBase.VerticalScrollBarVisibility%2A> attribute adds a scroll bar to the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox>, so that the contents of the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox> can be scrolled through if the <xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBox> expands beyond the size of the frame or window that encloses it.
