How to allign control in code behind

Question

How to align the control in code behind.

XAML:

<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot">
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefinition Height="60" />
        <RowDefinition />
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>
</<Grid>

<TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Center" Grid.row="0"/>

In code behind, I want to add the DataGrid in to that Grid.

DataGrid dt = new DataGrid();

// how to add above the grid in to that 
// layoutroot in second row.

Answer 1

For second row, set the Grid.Row property as below:

   DataGrid dt = new DataGrid();
   Grid.SetRow(dt ,1);

   LayoutRoot.Children.Add(dt);

Answer 2

You can use Grid.SetRow() and Grid.SetColumn() functions to set positions from code behind.

Grid.SetRow(dt,1); // set position
LayoutRoot.Children.Add(dt); // add control into the Grid
