I want to emulate modal dialog in XAML Metro App.

So I was going to set .IsEnabled = false on all controls apart from the one which will pose as a modal dialog.

Apparently IsEnabled not in Grid not in Panel not in FrameworkElement. **How to disable it not making a user control out of it?**

I guess Sinofsky cut so many corners that the whole thing is now more like an Escher staircases. I am loosing my faith. Please help
