how to set multiple Grids vertically like Bootsrap in a universal app - win-universal-app

I have this architecture in my project and I try to make it responsive,
<Grid >
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="auto" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="49" />
<RowDefinition Height="auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="auto" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid Grid.Row="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="2">
</Grid>
<Grid Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0">
</Grid>
<Grid Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="0">
</Grid>
<Grid Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1">
</Grid>
<Grid Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="2">
</Grid>
</Grid>
I have used a trigger and a StackPanel to change the orientation from horizontal to vertical when I resize the Screen but it doesn't work :(
any good solution please to do somthing like we do it bootsrap :)
thanks for help

Since OP doesnt have code for triggers. Have a look at Channel 9 video of Hero Explorer by Bob Tabor. Here he handles a similar scenario of cahnging layout from vertical to horizontal with video and code you will get the basic idea on how to handle trigger.
Following is the code from HeroExplorer to handle resizing, similary you can do that in your code also
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="VisualStateGroup">
<VisualState x:Name="Wide">
<VisualState.StateTriggers>
<AdaptiveTrigger MinWindowWidth="800" />
</VisualState.StateTriggers>
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Target="DetailGrid.(Grid.Row)" Value="0" />
<Setter Target="DetailGrid.(Grid.Column)" Value="1" />
<Setter Target="ColumnOne.Width" Value="Auto" />
<Setter Target="ColumnTwo.Width" Value="*" />
</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="Narrow">
<VisualState.StateTriggers>
<AdaptiveTrigger MinWindowWidth="0" />
</VisualState.StateTriggers>
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Target="DetailGrid.(Grid.Row)" Value="1" />
<Setter Target="DetailGrid.(Grid.Column)" Value="0" />
<Setter Target="ColumnOne.Width" Value="*" />
<Setter Target="ColumnTwo.Width" Value="Auto" />
</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<ScrollViewer>
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="*" />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="30" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition x:Name="ColumnOne" Width="Auto" />
<ColumnDefinition x:Name="ColumnTwo" Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<!-- Detail Grid -->
<Grid Name="DetailGrid" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="0" Margin="10,0,10,0">

The problem here is related to the Conflicting relationships with RelativePanel in your layout.
If you set multiple relationships that target the same edge of an element, you might have conflicting relationships in your layout as a result. When this happens, the relationships are applied in the following order of priority:
Panel alignment relationships (AlignTopWithPanel, AlignLeftWithPanel, …) are applied first.
Sibling alignment relationships (AlignTopWith, AlignLeftWith, …) are applied second.
Sibling positional relationships (Above, Below, RightOf, LeftOf) are applied last.
The panel-center alignment properties (AlignVerticalCenterWith, AlignHorizontalCenterWithPanel, ...) are typically used independently of other constraints and are applied if there is no conflict.
The HorizontalAlignment and VerticalAlignment properties on UI elements are applied after relationship properties are evaluated and applied. These properties control the placement of the element within the available size for the element, if the desired size is smaller than the available size.
So the priority of AlignTopWith is higher than Below. And in your code, you've set RelativePanel.AlignTopWith to imageBorder in descriptionPanel and textPanel. Therefore the settings like descriptionPanel.(RelativePanel.Below) in VisualState won't work.
To fix this issue, I'd suggest you delete the attached properties of RelativePanel in your descriptionPanel and textPanel and just set these attached properties in VisualState without using AlignTopWith.
As I'm not sure what your desired layout is, here I just use two visual states for example:
<VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
<VisualStateGroup x:Name="AdaptiveVisualStateGroup">
<VisualState x:Name="VisualStateNarrow">
<VisualState.StateTriggers>
<AdaptiveTrigger MinWindowWidth="0" />
</VisualState.StateTriggers>
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Target="descriptionPanel.(RelativePanel.Below)" Value="imageBorder" />
<Setter Target="textPanel.(RelativePanel.Below)" Value="descriptionPanel" />
</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState>
<VisualState x:Name="VisualStateWide">
<VisualState.StateTriggers>
<AdaptiveTrigger MinWindowWidth="1200" />
</VisualState.StateTriggers>
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Target="descriptionPanel.(RelativePanel.Below)" Value="titlePanel" />
<Setter Target="descriptionPanel.(RelativePanel.RightOf)" Value="imageBorder" />
<Setter Target="textPanel.(RelativePanel.Below)" Value="titlePanel" />
<Setter Target="textPanel.(RelativePanel.RightOf)" Value="descriptionPanel" />
</VisualState.Setters>
</VisualState>
</VisualStateGroup>
</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>

If you want to have full control over the content, visual, behaviour or animation for the Dialog, create a custom UserControl which implement events and elements.
Another solution is that you can firstly remove default buttons and event handlers:
As you can see there is a Grid control where you can place different controls. You can add your buttons here and also customize their design.
<ContentDialog
x:Class="SampleApp.Windows10.SampleContentDialog"

xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
mc:Ignorable="d"

<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition/>
<ColumnDefinition/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Button x:Name="AcceptButton" Grid.Column="0" Content="Accept"/>
<Button x:Name="CancelButton" Grid.Column="1" Content="Ignore"/>
</Grid>

CheckBox DelegateCommand not firing

I have seen many similar questions posted, but I think mine may be different enough to warrant posting it.
I am simply migrating the sample Azure Mobile Services application to Windows 10 UWP and trying to keep everything MVVM. I have a ListView that has a DataTemplate that looks like this:
<ListView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<CheckBox Name="CheckBoxComplete"
Command="{Binding ElementName=ViewModel, Path=UpdateCommand}"
CommandParameter="{Binding}"
Margin="10,5"
VerticalAlignment="Center"
Content="{Binding Text}"
IsChecked="{Binding Complete,
Mode=TwoWay}" />
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ListView.ItemTemplate>
Everything compiles fine, but the UpdateCommand is not firing. I have set a breakpoint to make sure that the correct value would be passed as the CommandParameter, but the Command is not firing. Is it possible to use a DelegateCommand on a CheckBox that is inside of a DataTemplate?
Or will I have to use attached behaviors to achieve something like this?
EDIT
The original CheckBox looked like this, with the click event handler in the code-behind:
<CheckBox Name="CheckBoxComplete"
IsChecked="{Binding Complete, Mode=TwoWay}"
Checked="CheckBoxComplete_Checked"
Content="{Binding Text}"
Margin="10,5" VerticalAlignment="Center" />

So the checkbox binding to elementname="viewmodel" is the issue. Because viewmodel is not a name of an element.
So give your page a name and put that name in the binding. With path=Datacontext.UpdateCommand

stretch TextBlocks inside a Grid in a universal App

I am having a problem in fixing 3 TextBlocks inside a Grid,in a metro App,I used this link enter link description here
but I get always a problem in stretching my TextBlocks inside the Grid
this is my code:
<ListView Grid.Row="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch">
<ListView.ItemTemplate >
<DataTemplate>
<Grid Margin="0" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="auto" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Border Margin="0">
<Image Grid.Column="0" Source="images/img1.png" Margin="0,5" Stretch="Fill" Width="80"/>
</Border>
<Grid Grid.Column="1" Margin="5" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" >
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<TextBlock x:Name="text1" Text="test1" Grid.Row="0" Margin="5" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" ></TextBlock>
<TextBlock x:Name="text2" Text="test2" Grid.Row="1" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" ></TextBlock>
<TextBlock x:Name="text3" Text="test3" Grid.Row="2" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" ></TextBlock>
</Grid>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>
so please I need your help,to fix that
thanks for help
You have to edit style of ListViewItem and set HorizontalAlignment to Stretch
<ListView>
<ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="ListViewItem">
<Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment"
Value="Stretch" />
<Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment"
Value="Stretch" />
</Style>
</ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
</ListView>

How to customize the DataGrid headers in Silverlight?

I am just started learning silverlight and it's controls. I am pretty much sure we can create this kind of headers for datagrid using silverlight too like other technologies like JQuery and Flex. But i am not sure how to do it. Can somebody suggest some examples or sites where i can learn to customize the headers like this?
