Selecting an existing control for editing

  1. If you want to make changes to a control that already exists, use one of the following methods to locate the control:

    • With the XAML file that contains the control open, click the Document Outline tab (right pane), locate the control in the list, and then click the gear icon on the toolbar.

    • From anywhere in the XAML file, click the gear icon.

      A dialog box showing all controls appears.

      Select the control and then click the gear icon to the right.

    • On the XAML editor screen, right-click within the tags for the control you want to edit and then click Settings.

    In all cases, a dialog box for changing properties for the control opens.

  2. Make settings for the control's properties as needed.
  3. Click OK when you are finished configuring properties.
