You click on that item and it zooms in.

Answer 2

If I do this it just zooms in and shows always the first group.

I tested it with the sample available.

Answer 3

You mentioned grid view, which suggests that you're actually working with XAML instead of HTML. This forum is focused on the latter, whereas XAML is covered in http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winappswithcsharp/threads.

I bring this up because what you're observing is a known issue with the XAML GridView control with semantic zoom. So far as I know, however, it's not a problem with an HTML/WinJS ListView control using grid layout.

Well, I've managed to use semantic zooming without any problems here. You shouldn't have any major problems if you share the same grouped data source with the zoomed in and zoomed out views.

Answer 5

I verified the Semantic Zoom Sample on the Consumer Preview works fine.  Vijay and Loki, please try that to verify.

I have tried in release preview as well. Still the scrolling is not working. It always scrolls to the first item.

I am using XAML with C#.

Thanks,
