Resizing browser = reposition controls

Question

Hello,

I know this has been asked before in a different question, but there was no response to that (and question was placed on 20th of january).

I have made a silverlight application. I placed some controls and stuff on it... No problems here.
I have made a usercontrol that needs to scroll in to screen, from right to left, when the user hits a button. Easy, right? Use a storyboard... Check! Done! Fixed! Works like a charm.

BUT...(!) as soon as I resize the browser the usercontrol does not start where it is supposed to start.

I would love to add some code to this question, but it's really to big to place here. I hope someone can give me a hint where to look for the solution.

Thanks in advance!

What does that mean? Where does it start? What exactly is happening (or not happenign)?

Solution 1

Is it possible that at the root of your element you've set a fixed size?

I think you have two options. The first would be to set the Clip property of your root control (I think you have to setup a rectangle for that...should be easy to google).

The other option is to dynamically size the app based on the size of the browser. Here's an example on Stack Overflow[^].

Cheers.

humm, I have looked into the two options, but did not figure out how to solve my problem. I think the best way for now is to make a small example, outside my current project, and post the XAML and stuff here. That way we can make it work with code we see. When that works I can use it in the current project. Will post the code soon
