Parameters

reference
Visual3D

The 3D visual whose bounding box value is computed.

Returns

The bounding box 3D rectangle for the Visual3D.

Remarks

Examples

The following example shows how to retrieve the bounding rectangle of a Visual object.

// Return the bounding rectangle of the parent visual object and all of its descendants.
Rect rectBounds = VisualTreeHelper.GetDescendantBounds(parentVisual);
' Return the bounding rectangle of the parent visual object and all of its descendants.
Dim rectBounds As Rect = VisualTreeHelper.GetDescendantBounds(parentVisual)
