    Resolved [RESOLVED] layout in xaml

    lots of buttons for layout option are disabled in xaml.. example "align right" "make same size, horizontal spacing and etc" when i have to work with multiple textboxes and multiple labels and other objects its very laborious to get every thing in perfect order.. is there a way that is equivalent to .net format?

    I don't know the answer to your question but I don't think the Layout tool bar affects WPF at all in VS 2008, although they may fix that in 2010. I just wanted to address a misconception on your part. You ask if there's an equivalent to "the .NET way" but it's all .NET. XAML is used in WPF applications, which are just as .NET as Windows Forms applications. WPF is quite new and they will make improvements over time. Better designer support, including the Layout tool bar, will likely be a part of that.

    Do you have a copy of Expression Blend? If you load that on your PC, it has all of the nice align features that are normally available for applications.
