Why can not I reduce the width of the button?

Question

I am working on a universal application. When I design a view for a Windows Phone 8.1 project, I cannot make any button width smaller than 109. If I set the button width property to be smaller than ever, it becomes 109 when rendering.

I would like to know how to make the button be smaller than this, and why this restriction exists in the first place.

Thank you for help!

If you simply drag the button from the toolbar, it will set MinWidth and MinHeight for you. You need to change these properties.

<Button MinWidth="25" MinHeight="50" />
