Preface

Arranging content with panels


Imagine the following scenario:

You are responsible for building your company's new BI dashboard. You get the requirements from your superior, and you notice one of the requirements is that your application must support all of the different screen resolutions in the office. This is exactly the point of knowing the different panels that Silverlight offers and how they come into play. Silverlight, being a rich UI framework, offers six different kinds of layout panels for different causes, and as nothing beats seeing things for yourself, we will now create our first Silverlight application to see how the panels differentiate from one another.
