For some reason, scrolling simply doesn't work on this ListView, and I really don't know why. The items display properly, just the list isn't scrollable. Using grids isn't viable (from what I know, anyway) since the items that are set to appear are pulled from a web source (don't know how many there will be, nor am I very willing to use hacky methods to get a scrollable list).

Even after conducting some research online, I couldn't find a solution to this annoying issue. Any ideas?

CodePudding user response：

After conducting more tests, I finally found that it was the automatic height of the frame which I call NavigateTo on which causes this issue. Manually setting the height fixes the problem, but the problem with is I want the size to be dynamic but also know when content stops fitting on the screen. What could I do about that?

Edit: Fixed this - realised the frame was under a StackPanel (forgot that they break auto height/width).
