How to achieve this effect - Bing Weather app items on first section adapt to screen orientation.

On the main first section of the Bing weather app, there is today's weather and then a control containing the forecast for 10 days more. When you switch between portrait and landscape screen orientation, the control adapts. In landscape the items are displayed horizontally, but in portrait, the items are on top of each other vertically?

Does anyone know what control this is and how to achieve the same effect when user rotates the screen?

You can set up different Visual States for portrait and landscape (and often a minimal size) and either reposition controls or hide and show different controls in the different states.

See Quickstart: Designing apps for different window sizes for more information.
