After reinstalling Visual Studio, the main window in any WPF projects ceased to be scaled to the scale selected in Windows. I have set the scale of the screen to 125% and before the window and all the text in it were increased in size. Now, it is the main window that remains the same size as at 100% scale. How to fix it?
The only thing I did besides reinstalling was to set the value according to the instructions from here: url
setx VSXAML_DISABLE_ON_DEMAND_RESOURCE_VALUES 1
Example:
Interface scale 125%
Main Window and Dialog Window
dimensions of both windows - Height="450" Width="800"
Scale 150%
And I remind you that the size of the windows is the same.
What can I do about it?

I want to make my Grid with round corner in my WPF project.
And due to some reason, I have to use ViewBox and hence to make it more difficult.
My code is as below:
<Window x:Class="WpfApp5.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApp5"
mc:Ignorable="d"
WindowStyle="None"
AllowsTransparency="True"
Background="Green"
Width="500" Height="300">
<Grid x:Name="gridTotal">
<Viewbox x:Name="vb">
<Grid Width="500" Height="300">
<Image x:Name="BlackMaskImage" Stretch="UniformToFill"/>
<Button Width="100" Height="100">
</Button>
</Grid>
</Viewbox>
</Grid>
I tries some method, like this:
How can I make a rounded-corners form in WPF?
But not work for my case.

In my code, there are two Grid. But for me, the final appearance of the window has 4 round corner is OK. That is I don't care which Grid is fabricated.
I tried to change the gridTotal to a Border, and that border can own round corner. But its content is still a rectangle with sharp right angle.
In UWP, a Grid can apply Style with setter to set its CornerRadius, but in WPF I cannot do so.
You don't specify any region breakdown in the Grid.
Use Border instead.
<Window x:Class="WpfApp5.MainWindow"

AllowsTransparency="True"
Background="{x:Null}"
Width="500" Height="300">
<Border x:Name="gridTotal" CornerRadius="20"
Background="Green">
<Grid Width="500" Height="300">
<Image x:Name="BlackMaskImage" Stretch="UniformToFill"/>
<Button Width="100" Height="100">
</Button>
</Grid>
</Border>

Here is my XAML Code:
<Window x:Class="MyProject.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:MyProject"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525" Loaded="Window_Loaded">
<Grid Loaded="Grid_Loaded">
<MediaElement LoadedBehavior="Manual" Name="video" Stretch="None" />
<Button x:Name="button1" Content="Button1" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="432,10,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="75" />
</Grid>
</Window>
Visual Studio 2012, WPF C# Windows Application. XAML:
<Window x:Class="Edge.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
<Grid Background="Blue">
<Image Source="Images/House.png"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
Stretch="Fill" Margin="3"
/>
</Grid>
</Window>
Image is not stretched to the whole window, as I want, it is shown only in 1/4 window area. I expect that Stretch="Fill" must stretch the image to the whole window. What is wrong?
The problem is your outer Grid. A Grid will re-size to fit the size of its children, but the child in this case (the Image) is trying to stretch to fill the size of its parent so I'm going to guess that what you are seeing is the image being drawn actual size.
Try using a DockPanel instead which fills all available parent space children.
<Window x:Class="Edge.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
<DockPanel Background="Blue">
<Image Source="Images/House.png"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
Stretch="Fill" Margin="3"/>
</DockPanel>
</Window>
I'm new to VS 2012, and I have this issue every time I use the XAML Designer.
Every time I add an item (e.g. a RadioButton, and Image, a Label) to my window, it deletes the previous one.
As a result, I can have only one item in my window, I know it is absurd, what am I missing?
Here is the xaml of the window
<Window
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:WpfViewers="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Samples.Kinect.WpfViewers;assembly=Microsoft.Samples.Kinect.WpfViewers" xmlns:Toolkit="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Kinect.Toolkit;assembly=Microsoft.Kinect.Toolkit" xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" mc:Ignorable="d" x:Class="KinectSetupDev.MainWindow"
Title="MainWindow" Height="400" Width="600">
<Toolkit:KinectSensorChooserUI x:Name="SensorChooserUI" VerticalAlignment="Center" Height="40" Margin="277,2,275,328"/>
</Window>
Here is the xaml of the window after dragging an image on it (from the Toolbox)
<Window
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:WpfViewers="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Samples.Kinect.WpfViewers;assembly=Microsoft.Samples.Kinect.WpfViewers" xmlns:Toolkit="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Kinect.Toolkit;assembly=Microsoft.Kinect.Toolkit" xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" mc:Ignorable="d" x:Class="KinectSetupDev.MainWindow"
Title="MainWindow" Height="400" Width="600">
<Image HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="86" Margin="77,188,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="111"/>
</Window>
As made clear by #Hans, I was trying to add multiple content items into a Window, in the XAML designer. This is just not possible so i had to:
1) Add a Grid to the Window.
2) Add any item to the grid.
It works, here is a sample code:
<Window
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:WpfViewers="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Samples.Kinect.WpfViewers;assembly=Microsoft.Samples.Kinect.WpfViewers" xmlns:Toolkit="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Kinect.Toolkit;assembly=Microsoft.Kinect.Toolkit" xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" mc:Ignorable="d" x:Class="KinectSetupDev.MainWindow"
Title="MainWindow" Height="768" Width="1024" Loaded="Window_Loaded_1">
<Grid HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="736" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="1012" Margin="2,2,0,0">
<Image x:Name="Image01" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="240" Margin="136,27,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="320"/>
<TextBlock x:Name="tbMessages" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="60" Margin="10,606,-664,-426" TextWrapping="Wrap" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="974"/>
<WpfViewers:KinectColorViewer HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="240" Margin="666,0,-666,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="320"/>
</Grid>
</Window>
I have a DockPanel in a UserControl, and in the designer looks everything fine, but I get an exception in runtime from the InitializeComponent():
The type 'DockPanel' was not found because 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation/toolkit' is an unknown namespace.
Any idea?
<UserControl x:Class="Controls.PropertiesControl"

mc:Ignorable="d"

<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">

</Grid>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
Do you reference the correct System.Windows.Controls.Toolkit.dll assembly in your project? If you're using Silverlight 4, also make sure it's the right version 4 (not 3).
