So I added an image to the project:
image
How can I make it display in the app? sorry I know this is a stupid question, I am new to app dev. I tried to import a image control from the Visual Studio toolbox and hoped there would be some kind of drag and dop kind of thing. the code for the Image control:
<Image x:Name="image" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="174" Margin="69,148,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="229"/>
<ListView x:Name="listView" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="150" Margin="110,172,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="165">
<ListView.Background>
<ImageBrush Stretch="Fill" ImageSource="Mobile Applications\Logo\logo.png"/>
</ListView.Background>
</ListView>
I am using Visual Basics to develop the app.
I have got no idea why you are using a ListView to display an image however in order to display an image using the "Image" tool, you need to set the source via XAML like this
<Image x:Name="image" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="183" Margin="154,55,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="96" Source="Images\Man.png"/>
Please note, I created a folder called "Images"
Of course there are others ways to add an image without XAML, but this is a good starting point for you I think.
P.S you will need to drag the "Image" Tool to your application, also i tried this using Windows Phone, it maybe different depending on what Framework you are using, but shouldn't be too hard to work out.
Happy Coding!

I'm developing a UWP application, however I'm not able to find where are the default icons.
Where can I find a list of them?
you can use character map application and select the font as segoe mdl2 assets. All the available icons will be shown. Alternatively in xaml also you can use like below code:
<SymbolIcon Symbol="Sync" Foreground="Red"/>
in my application I have the following code:
<UI:AdControl x:Name="ban2" Grid.Row="1" ApplicationId="xx"
AdUnitId="xx"
HorizontalAlignment="Center"
Height="80"
VerticalAlignment="Center"
Width="480"></UI:AdControl>
When using the test aplicationid and adunitId working properly, but when I go to replace with aplicationid and adunitId of my application created in the dev center no longer displays advertising.
thank you
If you don't publish your app in the store, the Application Id and Adunit Id will do not work.
So I would like to suggest you use test Application Id and AdUnit Id to test when you create your project. if you want to package your project and submit in the store, you just need to replace test value with real value(Apply for in the dashboard).
Normally, if your app is published and available in the store, it takes 1-2 days after that for ads from real units to start serving and ads will show.
I want to change the background image on Windows Phone 8 app. The following code does not work:
<phone:Panorama.Background>
<ImageBrush ImageSource="/PanoramaAppTest;component/Assets/background.png"/>
</phone:Panorama.Background>
You should try your image source. Like this;
<phone:Panorama.Background>
<ImageBrush ImageSource="/Assets/background.png"/>
or
<phone:Panorama.Background>
<ImageBrush ImageSource="../Assets/background.png"/>
</phone:Panorama.Background>
Actually I don't know but your problem's is location name.
I would like to use Anonymous Pro font in a Windows RT application. I was trying to follow the steps from this thread, but without any success.
This is my try:
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Title}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" FontSize="56"
FontFamily="/Assets/Fonts/Anonymous Pro.ttf"
/>
Instead of Anonymous Pro the default font is used. Actually, it the sample (see the link) the font family is specified, but I'm not sure: should I do it or should not. If I should, which family should be there?
So how to embed custom font in Windows RT application and use it from there?
here you go.. just appened the font name.. blogged about it when i saw you post

Why is this not working :-
<toolkit:Accordion x:Name="___No_Name_" Margin="0" SelectionMode="OneOrMore" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="{Binding ActualWidth, ElementName=grid}"

<toolkit:AccordionItem Header="Welcome" Margin="10,0" IsSelected="True" >
<TextBlock Margin="3" TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="This site was created using FMT. This is a great system that allows anyone This site was created using FMT.

<toolkit:AccordionItem Header="Family news" Margin="10,0" />
<toolkit:AccordionItem Header="Random photos" Margin="10,0" />
<toolkit:AccordionItem Header="News articles" Margin="10,0" />
</toolkit:Accordion>
I can only see the 1st line. The rest of the content is clipped. Why is the height not automatically setting it up even though i have a wrap on textblock? Why is this control harassing me so much? What wrong am i doing? Why can't i get the normal expected behavior with this control?
Even this simplest possible markup doesn't work.

The text in a TextBlock won't wrap unless the TextBlock also has a Width set.
I took your 'simplest possible markup', added Width=1000 to the TextBlock and the text wrapped as I expected it to.
