Please note As ASP.NET websites are developed using Visual Studio Silverlight applications are developed using either Visual Studio or Expression Blend (many more apps which supports silverlight dev). If you develop silverlight apps using Visual Studio will not give you every benefits you only have to develop via xaml coding. If you wish to develop Silverlight apps by design view you have to use Expression Blend. In Expression Blend you have option to develop via code view design view or by splitting. Look at image:

They've now hidden it by default. If you look carefully there's a splitter bar at the bottom and you can drag that up to see design view. Try the above if it is not working  please use Expression blend to get the design view.

Hi Murali i am working with vs2008 and silver light3.How to see the design view??

Muralidharan Deenathayalan · Answer

Which version of VS and silverlight you are using ? Unfortunately you can not drag controls on to the design surface with visual studio 2008. You need blend for that. Visual Studio does allow you to drag the controls onto the xaml. http://forums.silverlight.net/forums/p/109093/249049.aspx http://timheuer.com/blog/archive/2009/07/10/silverlight-3-released-what-is-new-and-changed.aspx http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/vssetup/thread/c6ff2acb-8b2d-4eb6-82c8-6c49898aaf06 Hope this helps you.
