Can I separate the Design Pane from the XAML Pane in Visual Studio?

I had this same problem, then i found a way to separate it like this,

  • Right click on the XAML file in the solution explorer and select Open With;
  • select Source Code (Text) Editor (instead of XML (Text) editor).

This creates a separate tab for the XAML source editor, just undock it and create a new window.
