Where to find this FlowPanel?

Question

I have found many sources referencing a WPF class called FlowPanel. There is even a MSDN entry about FlowLayoutPanel. But my Intelisense can't find it when I type in my XAML:

<Flow

I can't find it in the toolbar neither. What am I doing wrong?

Are you sure? I can only find the reference for such a control from Windows Forms... — H.B., Jul 24 '11 at 19:01
@H.B. you are right. But I first found this name when reading a WPF book. — Jader Dias, Jul 24 '11 at 20:14

FlowLayoutPanel is a WinForms control. You want the WPF equivalent, which is called WrapPanel.

FlowLayoutPanel is a WindowsForms control, so you will not find in in WPF. You can try the VirtualizingTilePanel, I think it has the functionality which you are looking for.

Edit: Also, I forgot about the Bag of Tricks. There is a neat class called AnimatingTilePanel.
