I have the need to create a wavey looking text object in my WPF

  • 0

I have the need to create a wavey looking text object in my WPF app, and I was actually assuming that there would be a “bend along a path” type of options, but I dont see one at all in Blend.

I found a tutorial that suggest you need to convert you text to a path letter by letter then rotate it around, but that is totally horrible in my opinion, to much room for error and not enough flexibility.

I essentially want a sentence to have an animated wave effect, how can I achieve this?

Thanks all
Mark

    You might want to check out Charles Petzold’s MSDN article Render Text On A Path With WPF (archived version here).

    wavy text

    I have found this article very useful and he also provides a sample where he uses animation.
