Automatic Scrolling in a Silverlight List Box

Question

How can I programmatically force a silverlight list box to scroll to the bottom so that the last item added is always visible.

I\'ve tried simply selecting the item

Answer 1

Just went through this and none of the solutions above worked in a Silverlight 5 app. The solution turned out to be this:

 public void ScrollSelectedItemIntoView(object item)
 {
      if (item != null)
      {                
          FrameworkElement frameworkElement = listbox.ItemContainerGenerator.ContainerFromItem(item) as FrameworkElement;
          if (frameworkElement != null)
          {
              var scrollHost = listbox.GetScrollHost();                    
              scrollHost.ScrollIntoView(frameworkElement);
          }
      }                
 }
