This property is read/write. The default value is an empty collection.

Managed Equivalent

Figures

Remarks

The XAML syntax for the Figures property is an example of an implicit collection syntax, where you can omit the PathFigureCollection object element and the <PathGeometry.Figures> property element. Instead, you generally include one or more PathFigure object elements as child elements of a PathGeometry. Explicitly including a PathFigureCollection object element is permissible XAML syntax and might be useful if you intend to name the collection in XAML and manipulate its contents through script later. Including the PathGeometry.Figures property element might also be useful for markup clarity, because of the nested figures and segment collections found in a typical complex PathGeometry.
