                       <xcdg:RegionConfiguration.Template>

                          <DataTemplate>

                             <!-- In this example, a fixed font size is not ideal since we don't

                                  know the final size of a card and we want the font size of the Title

                                  to vary along with the card size; therefore, we will place everything

                                  in a Viewbox, which will handle everything. -->

                             <Viewbox>

                                <!-- Using a Viewbox will stretch each title according to its

                                     content resulting in titles that can be of various sizes.

                                     This result may not always be esthetically pleasing and can

                                     also produce perspective problems (optical illusions).

                                     Giving the root element of the Viewbox an arbitrary width

                                     will correct this undesirable behavior. This size of 125 was

                                     determined by trial and error using our data source and it may

                                     be appropriate to change it according to the data. -->

                                <Grid Width="125">

                                   <!-- This grid is used to center the title when its desired

                                        width is less than 100. -->

                         item, there is no need to specify the name of the field that contains 

                         the image in the surface configuration's ImageRegionConfiguration. -->

                        It is important to note that themes decide what title-region positions they support

                        and for which surface configuration. -->
