Clipping
Clipping is a content element that can be used to define the outline of other content elements like Image and Path.
Creating a Clipping
The Clipping element exposes a single property.
- Clip: Property of type GeometryBase representing the Geometry that is used to clip the content element.
Example 1 demonstrates how you can create a Clipping element and assign a RectangleGeometry to its Clip property.
Example 1: Create clipping
Clipping clipping = new Clipping();
clipping.Clip = new RectangleGeometry(new Rect(5, 5, 50, 50));
Using Clipping
All inheritors of the ContentElementBase class expose a Clipping property. Setting it clips the respective content element with the specified clipping.
Example 2 demonstrates how to clip an image using the Clipping created in Example 1.
Example 2: Use clipping
Image image = container.Content.AddImage(imageSource);
image.Clipping = clipping;
