How can I determine if my TextBlock text is being trimmed?

Because the link in Alek’s answer is down, I found a cached copy of the link from the wayback machine. You can not download the code linked in the article, so here is a pre-assembled version of the code. There was one or two issues I ran in to while trying to make it work so this code is slightly different then the code in the examples in the article.

using System;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Media;

namespace TextBlockService
{

    {
        static TextBlockService()
        {
            // Register for the SizeChanged event on all TextBlocks, even if the event was handled.
            EventManager.RegisterClassHandler(
                typeof(TextBlock),
                FrameworkElement.SizeChangedEvent,
                new SizeChangedEventHandler(OnTextBlockSizeChanged),
                true);
        }


        private static readonly DependencyPropertyKey IsTextTrimmedKey = DependencyProperty.RegisterAttachedReadOnly("IsTextTrimmed",

            // textBlock is single or multi-line.
            // The "formattedText.MinWidth > formattedText.MaxTextWidth" check detects if any
