When you create a Silverlight application using Expression Blend 4 or Visual Studio 2010, and run it, there are no scrollbars in the browser and you may not see your complete page.
Here is my website I am building and as you can see, I can't see the scrollbars on the page so basically I am unable to read the page contents.

To fix this, we need to add a ScrollViewer or Scrollbars to the page and one of the simplest way to do so is by changing the Application_Startup method in App.xaml.cs file.
The default Application_Startup method looks like following:
private void Application_Startup(object sender, StartupEventArgs e)
{
this.RootVisual = new MainPage();
}
Now what we can do is, implement a ScrollViewer and place the MainPage within it. Here is the code to do so.
private void Application_Startup(object sender, StartupEventArgs e)
{
ScrollViewer scroller = new ScrollViewer();
scroller.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility = ScrollBarVisibility.Auto;
scroller.VerticalScrollBarVisibility = ScrollBarVisibility.Auto;
scroller.Content = new MainPage();
this.RootVisual = scroller;
}
Now if you run the application, you will notice both scrollbars are visible now.
