I'm trying to make the ScrollBar for the ScrollViewer to be always visible so it doesn't only appear when I try to scroll the text view and so the user knows that there is someting more to see.

Software: A simple WPF 4.5.2 application with just one button that logs if the click handler is called (just create a new project and add a button with a click handler to the MainWindow). Phenomenon: Normally when touching the button its click handler is called. But when the application window does NOT have the focus, sometimes the click handler is not called on button-touch (although the button color changes to blue). When the

I have been working on a Windows 8.1 RT app where the user loads an image with Stretch=Uniform . The image can be as small as possible and as big as possible. The clipping happens in my user control and my user control appears when I tap/press and hold on the screen/image. Clipping happens when when I tap and hold and move my finger/mouse around the image that is in the background.
