Examples

The following example creates a Grid with two columns by using ColumnDefinitions. You can do this using the new succinct syntax or the original syntax - both are accurate and produce the equivalent result. See examples of both below:

Using new succinct syntax:

<Grid ColumnDefinitions="250,150">
</Grid>

Using the original syntax:

<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
    <ColumnDefinition Width="250" />
    <ColumnDefinition Width="150" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
