TextBlock + PathCompactPath?

   XTP 13.4. 

<TextBlock>C:\Program Files (x86)\Codejock Software\MFC\Xtreme ToolkitPro v13.4.0\Workspace\ToolkitPro\Release\vc100</TextBlock>

If you want to display this textblock in a control with insufficient width, it makes sense to use PathCompactPath to compress it a bit. I know System.Windows.TextTrimming does not define such a trim mode. Can this be accomplished somehow using markup? If not, consider it a feature request :)

Edit: Looks like people already found this flaw in WPF:

	No chance for an extension?

	I agree that TextTrimming='PathEllipsis' would be a useful extension. I tried implementing the workaround as described at your link, but I couldn't get it working reliably with CJ markup (I never found a way to prevent the filename portion from moving too far to the right when the visible client area was really wide).

	Just would like to chime in with my vote as well. Would like to see this added to the feature roadmap.
