Question

Is there a way that I can use a normal Rectangle (shape) as part of a clip for another object in XAML. It seems like I should be able to, but the solution is eluding me..

<Canvas>

        <Rectangle Name="ClipRect" RadiusY="10" RadiusX="10" Stroke="Black" StrokeThickness="0" Width="32.4" Height="164"/>

<!-- This is the part that I cant quite figure out.... -->
<Rectangle Width="100" Height="100" Clip={Binding ElementName=ClipRect, Path="??"/>

</Canvas>

I know that I can use a ‘RectangleGeometry’ type approach, but I am more interested in the solution in terms of the code presented above.

Answer 1

Try Shape.RenderedGeometry Property.

<Rectangle Width="100" Height="100"
           Clip="{Binding ElementName=ClipRect, Path=RenderedGeometry}" />
