EllipseGeometry is not rendering in Silverlight

EllipseGeometry is not rendering in Silverlight

I'm trying to draw a circle in WP7 Silverlight using EllipseGeometry instead of Ellipse. The sample XAML in MSDN does not display anything on the canvas in Visual Studio. If I run the app, it does display in the emulator.

<Canvas>      <Path Fill="Gold" Stroke="Black" StrokeThickness="1">         <Path.Data>             <EllipseGeometry Center="50,50" RadiusX="50" RadiusY="50" />         </Path.Data>     </Path>  </Canvas> 

Any ideas what is happening?

For some unclear reasons, you should assign Width and Height.

  <Canvas>                 <Path Width="100" Height="100" Fill="Gold" Stroke="Black" StrokeThickness="1">             <Path.Data>                 <EllipseGeometry Center="50,50" RadiusX="50" RadiusY="50" />             </Path.Data>         </Path>     </Canvas> 

In blend, you will not have this issue.
