Grid row height not calculated correctly when set to auto and used with multiple columns of width *

Description

Grid row height not calculated correctly when set to auto and used with multiple columns of width *. The calculated height is not enough, resulting in the contents being clipped.

Steps to Reproduce

Create a grid with a row definition of Auto and at least 2 columns with definitions of *. Place a label into the first column with a long text attribute, and it’s height will not be calculated correctly, resulting in the text being clipped.

(See code below).

<Grid RowDefinitions="Auto" ColumnDefinitions="*,*" >
           <Label Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0"  BackgroundColor="Blue" Text="This is some long text 1. This is some long text 2. This is some long text 3. This is some long text 4. This is some long text 5. This is some long text 6. This is some long text 7. This is some long text 8. This is some long text 9. This is some long text 10. This is some long text 11. This is some long text 12. This is some long text 13. This is some long text 14. END."></Label>
</Grid>

If the grid contains just a single column of width *, then the problem does not occur.

I am also seeing weird layout issues with RC2 which did not exist in RC1. “Fill” does not seem to cause children to be sized to their parent properly? Not sure if it’s related, but definitely RC2 significantly broke layout to the point where we will skip RC2 development.

Same here, I needed to set the RowDefinition to Auto, even for Grids with one row. Then it looked like before.
