Hi,

Unfortunately, ChildWindow in Silverlight 4 don't support resizing. as S.manikandan mentioned, http://floatablewindow.codeplex.com/ is an good solution for resizing childwindow. But I don't agree with the solution he provide:

S.manikandan

In Xaml

<controls:ChildWindow x:Class="Export.ChildWindow1" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:controls="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls" Width="900"  Height="700" Title="ChildWindow1">  

or Set AUTO

I have tested it, when I set the Widht and Height of ChildWindow as auto, I still can't resize ChildWindow, it not works.

Best Regards,

Hi,

 Thank you for your reply but I have tried http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/121488/FloatingWindow-Multi-windows-Interface-for-Silverl

the problem with this is I have to add a 

FloatingWindowHost  

  to my MainPage, but anyways I found a way where I added the floatable window XAML directly and used visibility to manage it, but here I am unable to set the MinHeight or MinWidth it does not take effect, I tried the FloatableWindow_SizeChanged event but it not quit working the way it should 

Please suggest me a solution here...
