I suppose you are talking about the StatusBar when you click on MyAcction. Well definitely that should be a custom control. I managed to create a very rough demo, which could serve you as a getting started. Here is a link where you could download it from.

Hmm, what you could try is to add three row definitions in your content grid, and place each control in the corresponding row. Thus, you will fit all controls in a single page (the wp7 resolution is 480x800). But I am not sure how this will look (it could be crappy). Additionally you could place each control in a separate ScrollViewer. My advice is if your design allows you, then use either Panorama control or Pivot control.

ok ill try to elaborate it to my best ...

http://188.165.13.7/tcrk/#myaccount

just click on that link and u will see a pagecontaining 1.Current Balance part 2.Subscribed package Breakdown

3.History

now my question is that i want to fit all those 3 things in the main content grid of WP7 as shown in that image mockup. but i m unable to do that as the Subscribed package Breakdown, goes out of the WP7 default height and also i want you to help in designing the STATUS BAR which is shown in 4 different colours (blue,purple,yellow and grey )which is filled according to the values

i desperately need a help . i need to finish of with that design ASAP ...

hope u understood , if u need any more , kindly do ask ....

thanks in advance
