I use Viewboxto create a set of icons that I will dynamically link to the WPF view.
I am attached to the resource name and using Converterto convert the resource name to ImageSource.
I know how to do this if the resource is Path, but how to do it using Viewbox?
This is how I convert the name of the resource, if the resource Path, to ImageSource:
public class ResourceNameToImageSourceConverter : BaseValueConverter {
protected override ImageSource Convert(string value, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture) {
var resource = new ResourceDictionary();
resource.Source = new Uri("pack://application:,,,/MyAssembly;component/MyResourceFolder/ImageResources.xaml", UriKind.Absolute);
var path = resource[value] as Path;
if (path != null) {
var geometry = path.Data;
var geometryDrawing = new GeometryDrawing();
geometryDrawing.Geometry = geometry;
var drawingImage = new DrawingImage(geometryDrawing);
geometryDrawing.Brush = path.Fill;
geometryDrawing.Pen = new Pen();
drawingImage.Freeze();
return drawingImage;
} else {
return null;
}
}
}
And this is what widgets look like.<Viewbox>
<Viewbox>
<Grid>
<Path>
...
</Path>
<Path>
...
</Path>
<Path>
...
</Path>
<Rectangle>
...
</Rectangle>
</Grid>
</Viewbox>
</Viewbox>
