Hello,
The goal is to make it easy to place controls.
I do something wrong, but what?
As soon as I select a control, move it, the margins go into the code.
Then nothing can be understood.
What is the procedure for this simple dialogue?
Drag the control directly from Design, and VS will position the control by taking Margin ="left,top, Right,bottom" from the control's location. Therefore, it is not wise behavior to drag controls directly for layout in VS.For page layout, you need to design the page arrangement framework, combine different panels according to the actual situation, and then put in the control.
Ok, I should not use drag and drop.
The goal is this window.
Which controls controls would you take? Can you illustrate that?
-Grid
-Stackpanel
-WrapPanel
And with a short explanation, why this.
My goal.
Hi Markus,
try this:
Hi Peter,
Looks good!
You use a StackPanel for the picture and the header.

I would say a TextBlock is more usual than a label. Label is a contentcontrol.
When you set content of a label to a string it generates a textblock as it's content and sets the text of that to your string.
OK, Can you make a whole sample?
When should I use TextBlock, when should TextBox. I can also define a text box in multiple lines too.
