I have a Windows Phone 7 application and I regularly see weird UI glitches

  • 0

I have a Windows Phone 7 application and I regularly see “weird” UI glitches that take me AGES to debug. It’s a range of issues like controls appearing to have extra margin, scrollbars not appearing, animations looking really glitchy, entire page scrolled down, combobox items offset, etc. etc.

I’m happy to admit it might be me – but how to you debug UI errors like this? I know there’s Silverlight Spy for the PC Silverlight Apps. Is there anything like this for Windows Phone 7?

Any debugging tips v much appreciated.

    I have found that it is a good idea to start with Windows Phone 7 Design Templates, adopt a version control system right from day one of the project and to edit the XAML, use Expression Blend. The Visual Studio is great for writing code, but, to harness the real power of the tools, Expression Blend is the best to style your application.
