UserControl ScrollViewer not visible

Hi:

I have a UserControl that consumes an entire web page, but I can't get scroll bars to appear.  They're just not there no matter how small the window or screen resolution.  Does anyone know why?  Here's the UserControl definition:

  <UserControl x:Class="ABCWeb.MainPage"
  xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
  xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
  xmlns:navigation="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.Navigation"
  xmlns:telerik="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls"
  xmlns:telerikNavigation="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Navigation"
  xmlns:uriMapper="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Navigation;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.Navigation"
  xmlns:dataControls="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.Data.DataForm.Toolkit"
  xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
  mc:Ignorable="d" d:DesignWidth="1024" d:DesignHeight="768" HorizontalAlignment="Center"
    ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Visible"
    Loaded="UserControl_Loaded">

Like Bryant says if you want your complete control to be visible you need to put it in a scrollviewer.

It may be that your control's scrollviewer is not visible because it is too big for the scroll bars to be seen.

If you put your control in a scrollviewer then you may be able to scroll to see your controls scrollbars.

Then, if you want to drive your user's crazy put another "too large" control into your first control and another inside of that...
