What can xaml designer do in visual studio?


Asked by Stephen Proctor on Dec 15, 2021 FAQ



The XAML Designer in Visual Studio and Blend for Visual Studio provides a visual interface to help you design XAML-based apps, such as WPF, UWP, and Xamarin.Forms apps.
In respect to this,
To open the XAML Designer, right-click a XAML file in Solution Explorer and choose View Designer. XAML Designer provides a XAML view and a synchronized Design view of your app's rendered XAML markup. With a XAML file open in Visual Studio or Blend for Visual Studio, you can switch between Design view and XAML view by using the Design and XAML tabs.
Also, Visual Studio and Blend for Visual Studio provide a XAML Designer that helps you build user interfaces (UI) for WPF, UWP, and Xamarin.Forms apps. You can drag controls from the Toolbox or Assets window and set properties in the Properties window. When you do so, Visual Studio and Blend for Visual Studio create the corresponding XAML code.
In addition,
The workspace in XAML Designer consists of several visual interface elements. These include the artboard (which is the visual design surface), XAML editor, Document Outline window (Objects and Timeline window in Blend for Visual Studio), and Properties window.
Consequently,
If any .xaml files are open they will not have access to the Design view. Opening them and closing them at this point will load the Design view. If the Design view still doesn't appear see Solution 2 immediately below. At the bottom of the XAML editor window you may see a small icon with a double arrow ( Expand Pane ).
