If you use Expression Blend to design your Silverlight pages, you will see page has a fixed width and height. How do you set width of a page to 100%?
You can set 100% width of a page (User Control) in Expression Blend by removing width attribute of UserControl. BUT then you won't be able to see the page in design mode.
To overcome this issue, you simply set DesignWidth and DesignHeight of UserControl as following:
<UserControl xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" x:Class="Mindcracker.Page" d:DesignWidth="1100" d:DesignHeight="800" xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" mc:Ignorable="d" xmlns:vsm="clr-namespace:System.Windows;assembly=System.Windows">
