.NET Framework 4
Returns a Rect that represents the layout partition that is reserved for a child element.
Assembly: PresentationFramework (in PresentationFramework.dll)
Parameters
- element
- Type: System.Windows.FrameworkElement
The FrameworkElement whose layout slot is desired.
The following example demonstrates how to use the GetLayoutSlot method to translate the bounding box of a FrameworkElement into a GeometryDrawing.
private void getLayoutSlot1(object sender, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs e) { RectangleGeometry myRectangleGeometry = new RectangleGeometry(); myRectangleGeometry.Rect = LayoutInformation.GetLayoutSlot(txt1); GeometryDrawing myGeometryDrawing = new GeometryDrawing(); Path myPath = new Path(); myPath.Data = myRectangleGeometry; myPath.Stroke = Brushes.LightGoldenrodYellow; myPath.StrokeThickness = 5; Grid.SetColumn(myPath, 0); Grid.SetRow(myPath, 0); myGrid.Children.Add(myPath); txt2.Text = "LayoutSlot is equal to " + LayoutInformation.GetLayoutSlot(txt1).ToString(); }
