Content Model: A Viewbox can only have one Child. If you add an additional Child, you cause an ArgumentException at run time.
The following example shows how to create an instance of a Viewbox and set common properties in code.
' Create a ViewBox and add it to the Canvas
Dim myViewbox As New Viewbox()
myViewbox.StretchDirection = StretchDirection.Both
myViewbox.Stretch = Stretch.Fill
myViewbox.MaxWidth = 400
myViewbox.MaxHeight = 400
// Create a Viewbox and add it to the Canvas
myViewbox = gcnew Viewbox();
myViewbox->StretchDirection = StretchDirection::Both;
myViewbox->Stretch = Stretch::Fill;
myViewbox->MaxWidth = 400;
myViewbox->MaxHeight = 400;
// Create a Viewbox and add it to the Canvas
myViewbox = new Viewbox();
myViewbox.StretchDirection = StretchDirection.Both;
myViewbox.Stretch = Stretch.Fill;
myViewbox.MaxWidth = 400;
myViewbox.MaxHeight = 400;
