Layout/Animation problem

Hello,

I want to create a wizard like control that allows me to gather user input.
I know what I want it to look like but I'm not quite sure how to accomplish
it.

Basically this is my control layout, the middle section is the content I
want to transition.

--------------------------------------------------------
| current step display |
--------------------------------------------------------
| |
| |
| |
| Current Step content |
| |
| |
--------------------------------------------------------
| < Back Next > |
--------------------------------------------------------


I would like my content pieces to align horizontally but each taking up the
full content area

--------------------------------------------------------
| current step display |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| ||
||
|
| ||
||
|
| ||
||
|
| Step 1 || Step
2 || Step 3 - etc.
|
| ||
||
|
| ||
||
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| < Back Next > |
--------------------------------------------------------

This way I can set up an animation that scrolls the current steps content
into the viewable area.


How can I accomplish this layout using XAML?

Thanks in advance.

Jared

RE: Layout/Animation problem

Sorry, my ASCII diagram didn't come across so well.

Basically, my desired result is to have the content pieces line up or
stacked horizontally, but, each taking the full viewable content area.
So, when a user resizes the form only the current step (conent) is in view.

|Header|
|Content|Content|Content|Content|etc.
|Footer|

Thanks again,
Jared
