Why is there a difference between the page style in split view and simulated window (in Xamain)?

There is always some difference in the position of my controls in the simulated screen and the split view (Visual Studio 2019). Which one is correct? How can I make them similar?

Hello,​

Welcome to our Microsoft Q&A platform!

There is always some difference in the position of my controls in the simulated screen and the split view (Visual Studio 2019). Which one is correct? How can I make them similar?

Simulated screen is correct, please do not expect too much from Previewer Layout(split view) - it only may help you with designing your app layout, but it would not give you that great direct experience as emulator or physical device. And if you update your VS to the latest, XAML Previewer will be moved, Visual Studio 2019 version 16.8 and Visual Studio for Mac version 8.8, and replaced by the XAML Hot Reload feature in Visual Studio 2019 version 16.9 and Visual Studio for Mac version 8.9

Best Regards,

Leon Lu
