Proposal: Window Width/Height in Desktop
See original GitHub issueProposal: Support Window Width/Height when in Desktop
Summary
For WinUI in Desktop apps:
- Support setting Width and Height on
Windowin XAML. - Support setting d:DesignWidth and d:DesignHeight on
Windowin XAML.
<Window Width="1200" Height="600"
d:DesignWidth="1000" d:DesignHeight="500">
Rationale
Many developers doing WinUI in Desktop will have a background in WPF and/or simply not be interested in doing a responsive design – this is “in Desktop” after all. Without the ability to set Window size in a traditional way, I believe adoption will suffer due to too much forced change.

😂 😂 😂 UI library without ability to change window size.
@JVimes, thanks for opening this request. I believe there should be APIs that allow developers to do this. The APIs should work for both, UWP and Desktop.
