Model3D Class (System.Windows.Media.Media3D)

Model3D Class

.NET Framework Class Library

Model3D Class

Abstract class that provides functionality for 3-D models.

Namespace: System.Windows.Media.Media3D
Assembly: PresentationCore (in PresentationCore.dll)

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)

<LocalizabilityAttribute(LocalizationCategory.None, Readability := Readability.Unreadable)> _
Public MustInherit Class Model3D _
    Inherits Animatable _
    Implements IFormattable

Visual Basic (Usage)

Dim instance As Model3D

[LocalizabilityAttribute(LocalizationCategory.None, Readability = Readability.Unreadable)]
public abstract class Model3D : Animatable, 
    IFormattable

Visual C++

[LocalizabilityAttribute(LocalizationCategory::None, Readability = Readability::Unreadable)]
public ref class Model3D abstract : public Animatable, 
    IFormattable

JScript

public abstract class Model3D extends Animatable implements IFormattable

XAML

This class is abstract; see Inheritance Hierarchy for derived non-abstract classes usable in XAML.

Remarks

Objects of this type include GeometryModel3D and Light.
