Virtualizing WrapPanel as ListView's ItemsTemplate

Closed 4 years ago.
So no matter how hard I try I can't get virtualization in my view to work.
When I scroll through my Listbox, the items always keep populating from the top and carry on right to the bottom, rather than rendering what is on screen and just a bit above and bellow.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Bellow is the code for the Viewbox. A point of note:
I am using a Viewbox inside a ListBox and a grid inside the ViewBox. This is because my items populate in a similar way to text with word warping turned on - it populates horizontally until the width, then moves on to the next line.
My items in the ListBox are scalable, and there position in the view changes dynamically depending on the scale size, whilst also, the TextBlocks text dose not scale.
Not sure if that effects virtualization in a way I am unaware.
If that is not clear, I apologise and am happy to answer any questions. Thanks for your time:

Answer 1

The answer is, as Clemens pointed out, "The ItemsPanel must support virtualization. WrapPanel does not."
