How add columns to a row in Grid in wpf

Question

I have a MainGrid in Wpf (not a DataGrid) it has 3 rows(0.1 and 2) i have made rows using xaml at design time now at run time behind a menu button i want to add 2 column to row 1 of the main grid.

The hard part is that only break the row 1 into 2 columnn and not the whole Grid.

i know that to add new rows and columns one can use rowdefination and columndefination but

couldnt find anything here:

 MainGrid.RowDefinitions.ElementAt(1).SetValue...;

Thanks

Why don't you add a Grid with 1 row and 2 columns to that row instead. And put your contents in that Grid. That will be easier.
