Programmatically change HubSection Windows Phone

Question

Is it possible to change a Hubsection as if you moved it with your finger per code? E.g. I have three HubSections, I click a button in HubSection3 and it changes to HubSection1.

Answer 1

If you assign both your hub and your sections names, then in your code-behind you can do something like this:

private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    MyHub.ScrollToSection(HubSection1);
}

However from a UI perspective, I personally wouldn't drive the navigation with a button in this way. As generally, the purpose of a hub is to display content in a similar style to that of a magazine, allowing the user to flick through the content at their discretion.
