Setting the TextWrapping to Wrap or WrapWithOverflow will not allow the WatermarkContent to be wrapped. Reason for decline: Instead of setting the content inline, we recommend setting it as follows: <telerik:RadWatermarkTextBox Width="100"> <telerik:RadWatermarkTextBox.WatermarkContent> <TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="Watermark Content Watermark Content Watermark Content Watermark Content" /> </telerik:RadWatermarkTextBox.WatermarkContent> </telerik:RadWatermarkTextBox> More information can be found in our help about using the WatermarkContent and WatermarkTemplate properties: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/wpf/controls/radwatermarktextbox/features#using-the-watermarkcontent-property Please let us know if this is not applicable in the scenario of your application.
