In xaml, if you make a grid with rows like this:

<Grid>
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefintion Width="*"/>
        <RowDefintion Width="Auto"/> 
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>
</Grid>

Rows that have Auto Width resize to fit their contents. Rows that have * Width equally share the available space with other * Width Columns. To create an item that fills its container, simply put the control in a * row and column and set the HorizontalAlignment and VerticalAlignment on the control to Stretch.

To get a control that wraps to the next line, simply use a WrapGrid.
