My Windows Store app has a XAML page with several invisible controls on it (Opacity = 0). I have storyboards that fade these in based on user actions.
Even though the opacity of these controls is 0 in the designer, they still appear for about 1 second on the screen while the page loads. How do I prevent Windows from displaying these controls?

I am using Visual basic 2010 for coding. I have develop the code on desktop. Where I have adjusted form as per my desktop screen. I am going to run the application on Laptop. When I run the app the screen is not fitting to Laptop screen. SO I deciede to include vertical scroll. If moved up and down we can see all the parameter.
How can I do it?
I have added image for reference.
The scroll bar(s) should be inside the individual TabPages. You should set the Anchor and/or Dock properties of the TabControl so that it resizes with the form and set the AutoScroll property of each TabPage to True if you want it to display scroll bars if and when any of its child controls are outside its viewable area.
I have a Xaml page that has a bunch of different grids within grids. The page has 3 main "buttons" for a user to click. I want to allow a user using just a keyboard to tab through and select these 3 buttons, however because they are grid's, they do not have a tabstop. Anyone have a suggestion how I achieve this without a complete redesign of the page using something other than grids (such as buttons)?
I am trying to make a transparent control with child controls that are visible and opaque.
I have added a panel control to the main form via code in the form load event. In this I am adding five buttons as child controls like: panel.controls.add(). To all of these, I have set backcolor=color.transparent.
When I run this program, the button background shows the background of the next button in the panel. If I open a child form, then I can see labels on the child form as the background of the panel.
I want to make container panel control completely transparent, so I can see the main form through it. How can this be achieved?
When the form loads, you can see neighbor buttons behind the actual buttons
"Perform Check" is a label on a child form which I opened right before taking this picture.
: "Check Cases and Combinations" is a button on a child form which I opened right before I took this picture.
How can I make it truly transparent? Why doesn't the background of the panel control refresh with the main form background? The panel sort of "keeps" whatever happens on the main form and shows it as a background.
I found out there some issues with setting controls that are transparent and on top of other controls in the main form. They take the background of the container form, whether or not there is any control in between. I used WPF form instead of the panel and it worked perfectly.
I am trying to create an animation to a control.
So think of the animation and control of a now playing page on most touch screen devices. You see the control (album photo) and swipe either way and get it to slide off the screen and then the next control (album photo) slides on in its place.
I am not asking for you to code me this, but I am having trouble wrapping my head around a way that this could be done.
The control content is always changing, when you swipe one way, an image is removed from the view and then the next is added.
What you need is FlipView control which can get you the interface you described.
Here are some references:

Image shows the buttons on my UI in vb.net
All these buttons are having background images. Now what i want is these buttons be shown as inactive when actions corresponding to them are not available so I am making them cmd.enable = false but still on UI there is no visual effect of this disabling them on these buttons. They keep looking same as in enabled mode. So how to give effect of disabled state to these buttons.
In the same way i want effect to be visible when mouse is hovered over these buttons and buttons are clicked
They don't look like buttons at all, it looks like a row of images. Use a real Button or a ToolStrip with ToolStripButtons, set their Image property. When you set their Enabled property to false then they automatically remove all color from the image, making it look disabled.
