How to override MeasureOverride to find the size of ItemsControl

I had asked a question before which essentially boils down to:

How can I get the actual size of a UserControl having an ItemsControl to which items are dynamically added?

I tried overriding MeasureOverride as suggested here, but it is not helping.

I have tried suggestions given there. That's the reason I linked that question. — blitzkriegz, Jan 13 '12 at 05:38
Rather than asking the same question again, why not try adding a 'bounty' to your original question? — ColinE, Jan 13 '12 at 06:32

Not sure, but look at the ActualHeight and ActualWidth properties:

`ActualHeight` and `ActualWidth` are not calculated until after the controls have been rendered. Based on the linked question, I think the OP wants to get the size before they get rendered. – Rachel Jan 13 '12 at 14:45

I allways wait for the sizechanged event of the control for which I need the ActualHeight and the ActualWidth properties.

So, hookup this event to your user control and then react in handler on e.NewSize.
