Changing your stackpanel's HorizontalAlignment property from "Center" to "Right" will work for you...

How to resize NavigationView and SplitView in UWP

I want to enable user to resize the NavigationView in my UWP app. Couldn't find any resources how I could do that.
I see some of the apps have "Resizable splitView" but for SplitView also, I cannot see any such resize property exposed to set by default.
Pls help.
Thanks in Advance
There are no such property can resize SplitView and NavigationView, you need to custom layout to implement a similar effect. You could use Slider control and bind the OpenPaneLength Property of SplitView to Slider.Value to do this. Please refer to the following code.
<Grid>
<SplitView Name="CoreSplitView"
DisplayMode="Inline"
IsPaneOpen="True"
OpenPaneLength="{Binding Value, ElementName=MasterSlider, Mode=OneWay}">
<SplitView.Pane>
<Grid Name="PaneGrid" Background="Gray">
<Slider Name="MasterSlider"
MinWidth="480"
VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
Maximum="480"
Minimum="10"
Opacity="0"
Value="150"
/>
<StackPanel Name="PaneStackPanel"
Margin="0,0,10,0" Background="LightGray">
<TextBlock TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="Use a slider when you want your users to be able to set defined, contiguous values (such as volume or brightness) or a range of discrete values (such as screen resolution settings).A slider is a good choice when you know that users think of the value as a relative quantity" />
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</SplitView.Pane>
<Grid Name="ContentGrid" Background="LightSteelBlue">
</Grid>
</SplitView>
</Grid>
The StackPanel that is directly under our slider, acts like a cover for our Slider. Notice the StackPanel has Margin="0,0,10,0", this translates to a 10px distance from the right wall, which allows the Slider area to be exposed as a gray strip that is used to drag the Pane, again the 10px is arbitrary but it has to match the Minimum of the Slider.

Windows Phone 8.1 XAML Image inside ToggleButton adds mystery padding

I'm working with a toggle button and rather than show text I want to show an image so I have this:
<ToggleButton Grid.Column="1" IsChecked="true" MinWidth="50" MinHeight="0" BorderThickness="0" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
<Image Source="ms-appx:///Assets/Icons/phonebutton.png" Stretch="None" RenderTransformOrigin="0.5,0.5" Margin="0">
<Image.RenderTransform>
<CompositeTransform ScaleX="0.5" ScaleY="0.5"/>
</Image.RenderTransform>
</Image>
</ToggleButton>
I have the transform to make the image a bit smaller so it's "inside" the button instead of filling it.
However, no matter what I do the button has a large padding around the image, even though the image itself has no margins or padding. I've set margin=0 on everything but the ToggleButton insists on putting space around the image, so the button is larger than it needs to be and cuts off inside the grid row it's in (which has a height="*")
I want the toggle button to "shrink" to fit in the row but still show the full image inside ...
while typing this the autosuggest found this link ToggleButton does not fill the area(windows phone) and by adding the style PhoneTouchTargetOverhang it does look better but then cuts off the image at the bottom unless I add negative padding to the togglebutton.
Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Is there any way to disable it?
I have added the following margin to an image of 512x512:
<Image Source="/Assets/award4.png" Stretch="None" RenderTransformOrigin="0.5,0.5" Margin="-100,0,-100,0">
<Image.RenderTransform>
<CompositeTransform ScaleX="0.5" ScaleY="0.5"/>
</Image.RenderTransform>
</Image>
And it fits centered

Horizontal context menu with icons Windows phone 8

I am trying to add a context menu which shows menu items horizontally. My sample code:
<toolkit:ContextMenuService.ContextMenu>
<toolkit:ContextMenu>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<toolkit:MenuItem Tap="CallMenuItem_tapped">
<toolkit:MenuItem.Header>
<Image Height="50"
Stretch="Uniform"
Source="Assets/icon1.png" />
</toolkit:MenuItem.Header>
</toolkit:MenuItem>
<toolkit:MenuItem Tap="ChatMenuItem_tapped">
<toolkit:MenuItem.Header>
<Image Height="50"
Stretch="Uniform"
Source="Assets/icon2.png" />
</toolkit:MenuItem.Header>
</toolkit:MenuItem>
<toolkit:MenuItem Tap="OtherMenuItem_tapped">
<toolkit:MenuItem.Header>
<Image Height="50"
Stretch="Uniform"
Source="Assets/icon3.png" />
</toolkit:MenuItem.Header>
</toolkit:MenuItem>
</StackPanel>
</toolkit:ContextMenu>
</toolkit:ContextMenuService.ContextMenu>
I am facing some problems. First of all when I tap a menu item the specific event is called but the menu remains open. As I am showing all the menu items in one line(horizontally), I am unable to fix the height and width of context menu. Is there a better way to add a horizontal context menu using icons?
I would suggest you to use the ItemsPanel property to set the layout as horizontal stack panel. And if you still face any issues then you can manually close the context menu using the IsOpen property. Hope this helps you.

Windows phone 8 viewport control

I try to understand how windows phone viewport control Bounds work.
So i can give
viewport.Bunds = new Rect(x,y,width, height);
but what that bound stand for is it a scrollable area in the viewport.
Can anyone give me a working simple example of it cause whenever i try to use this parameter i can't scroll in viewport whatsover
<Grid x:Name="ContentPanel" Grid.Row="1" Margin="0,0,0,0">
<ViewportControl Name="tuzik" Bounds="0,0,300,400" Margin="66,117,20,41" >
<Canvas Name="canvas">
<Image Name="TestImage" Source="Assets\testimage.jpg"
HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top"
Canvas.Left="-379" Canvas.Top="-769" Stretch="Fill" />
</Canvas>
</ViewportControl>
<Rectangle x:Name="rect" Width="300" Height="400" Margin="60,111,63,0" Stroke="Aqua" />
</Grid>
I believe your problem is the Canvas within the ViewportControl. Canvas does not expand to fill the ViewportControl and will not expand to contain the contents, either. You have to set a Width and Height on the Canvas.
(At least, that's how I have mine setup.)

Windows8 ListView LineHeight

I have added a ListView to a Metro Style Blank App. Added to the ListView are 3 Strings. I want to change the LineHeight , but cannot find a property. Below is my xaml code.
<Grid Background="{StaticResource ApplicationPageBackgroundBrush}">
<ListView HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="277.167" Margin="235.51,161,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="100" RenderTransformOrigin="0.5,0.5" UseLayoutRounding="False" d:LayoutRounding="Auto">
<ListView.RenderTransform>
<CompositeTransform SkewX="-0.338" TranslateX="-0.327"/>
</ListView.RenderTransform>
<x:String>test 1</x:String>
<x:String>Test2</x:String>
<x:String>Test3</x:String>
</ListView>
</Grid>
How do I decrease, increase the line height of the strings in the ListView box? I want to decrease the space between the lines.
Thanks
Try editing a ItemContainerTemplate and then play with the properties available like margin and padding.
