For a day now I'm struggling to solving this issue, regarding scaling a textblock and a textbox upon pinching the scatterViewItem for resizing it. I've tried putting each of the elements in their viewbox, but also having the whole grid in a viewbox. The issue is that it(the textbloxk, that is) doesn't scale upon pinching or stretching rather, (dynamically so to speak) - at runtime, or not even upon contact_up.
What actually solves it is simply setting an event handler that fires upon size_changed of the SVI, inside simply paste the code:
{label name}.FontSize *= (double)e.NewSize.Height / (double)e.PreviousSize.Height;
Thanks!
