    Why there is only ellipse and rectangle in the shapes? What happened to arc and other shapes? Will be available in the future releases?

    Assuming you are talking about using Xaml you can create a number of shapes (including arcs) as paths with the Pen or Pencil tools.

    Hi there! I'm interested in this topic too!
    I see the arc-shape and the other shapes in Blend for Visual Studio 2013 if I open a Silvelight project, but if I open a Windows Phone 8.1 (not SL) project the only shapes are ellipse and rectangle.
    Path is not the same at all because I can't easily change the path shape to reproduce the arc-shape parameter modification behaviour (for instance the start or end angle of an arc shape) at Runtime.
    Is there an alternative way to draw some parametric shapes such as a curved progressbar or a simple pie graph?

    Thanks!
