	Your example code all shows these being set in code behind; which means that the UI designer always shows your default layout instead of the layout I'm using. ex from StyleSamples.cs in your example projects: Code (C++) virtualKeyboard.TemplateLayout = KeyboardLayout.Create( this.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream("Styles.CustomLayout.xml")); //set custom style of VirtualKeyboardStyle from file resources.Source = new Uri("/Styles;component/VirtualKeyboardWithImages.xaml", UriKind.Relative); this.Resources.MergedDictionaries.Add(resources);

	You can define keyboard layout from Xaml like this - Code <vk:VirtualKeyboard> <vk:VirtualKeyboard.TemplateLayout> <vk:KeyboardLayout> <vk:KeyboardLayout.Keys> <vk:RegularKey Content="A" Left="10" Top="10" Width="60" Height="60" /> <vk:RegularKey Content="B" Left="80" Top="10" Width="60" Height="60" /> ... </vk:KeyboardLayout.Keys> </vk:KeyboardLayout> </vk:VirtualKeyboard.TemplateLayout> </vk:VirtualKeyboard> Seeing an external layout file created using the Keyboard Creator tool in VS design time should be possible too - try creating an IValueConverter that returns KeyboardLayout.Create(filename) from Convert method and use it in TemplateLayout binding expression.
