Hi,

Can someone please throw some light on and where and how to start designing a new fresh XAML page for a C++ app ?

I see we can use XAML designer, blend tools for the same, but just wanted to hear best practices and thoughts from you guys.

Actually blend is allowing me to modify row or column definitions for an existing XAML page or i may be doing it wrongly. Can you please help on that too ?

Thanks !!

Hi,

Seems you are a beginner for XAML development. So I recommend you can see some information about XAML:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/xaml/hh700354.aspx

And see Create a UI with XAML

How to design a great user UI interface

And During this course below, you will learn how to use Blend and Visual Studio 2013 to create a XAML-based UI by working your way through a collection of task areas that apply to Windows Store apps:
