Question

I have created a non standard shaped window with the

WindowStyle="None" 
AllowsTransparency="True" 
Background="Transparent"

approach.

I have arrived at the following:

A windows has a grid. The grid has an Image control (a superman logo) and a border control (blue panel) that will in turn contain listbox that is not yet visible due to the absense of elements.

At some point I need to fill an entire window with a patter, so I woul arrive at something like this:

If I just fill separate controls with a pattern, it wouldn’t appear to be smoothly distributed along the page.

So my idea is to somehow dynamically get the path element out of the window and fill it with a pattern I need, and then display.

Can this be done via code at runtime?

Answer 1

A Path is probably the easiest way I know of, and is what I usually do for non-standard window shapes
