In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "Now save all your files and go to the Window1.xaml file (basically, your main file)."

A block of code is set as follows:

<ColumnDefinition Width="0.5*"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="0.5*"/>

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

private void expOptions_Collapsed(object sender,RoutedEventArgs e)
{ this.expOptions.Header = "Show advanced options";
}

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "LayoutRoot is a grid control hosted in UserControl".
