Body
I have a DataTemplate used in an ItemsControl that has a grid with 3 rows: <pre><code> <Grid Margin="12,0,0,4"> <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <ColumnDefinition Width="80" /> <ColumnDefinition Width="330" /> <ColumnDefinition Width="30"/> </Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <Grid.RowDefinitions> <RowDefinition Height="Auto" /> <RowDefinition Height="Auto" /> <RowDefinition Height="Auto" /> </Grid.RowDefinitions> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Due}" Foreground="CornflowerBlue" FontSize="28" HorizontalAlignment="Center" /> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Expected.Value}" Foreground="Red" FontSize="16" Grid.Row="1" Grid.RowSpan="2" HorizontalAlignment="Center" /> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Destination}" Grid.Column="1" FontSize="28" TextWrapping="Wrap" HorizontalAlignment="Left" /> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Via}" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" Foreground="Gray" FontSize="16" HorizontalAlignment="Left" /> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Status}" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="2" FontSize="16" HorizontalAlignment="Left" /> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Platform.Value}" Grid.Column="2" Grid.RowSpan="3" FontSize="40" VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Center" /> </Grid> </code></pre> On some of the items, the Via binding will have an empty string, and on WP7 that causes the middle row to collapse. But when I convert the project to WP8, the behaviour is different, I get an empty line, as if it's reserving space for the textblox even though it has no text. How can I force WP8 to have the same behaviour as WP7 in this scenario?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
