Namespace: System.Windows
Assembly: WindowsBase (in WindowsBase.dll)

Syntax

C++

[<Sealed>]
[<SerializableAttribute>]
[<TypeConverterAttribute(typeof(SizeConverter))>]
type Size = 
    struct
        interface IFormattable
    end

Constructors

	Name	Description
	Size(Double, Double)	Initializes a new instance of the Size structure and assigns it an initial width and height.

Properties

	Name	Description
	Empty	Gets a value that represents a static empty Size.
	Height	Gets or sets the Height of this instance of Size.
	IsEmpty	Gets a value that indicates whether this instance of Size is Empty.
	Width	Gets or sets the Width of this instance of Size.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals(Object)	Compares an object to an instance of Size for equality. (Overrides ValueType.Equals(Object).)
	Equals(Size)	Compares a value to an instance of Size for equality.
	Equals(Size, Size)	Compares two instances of Size for equality.
	GetHashCode()	Gets the hash code for this instance of Size. (Overrides ValueType.GetHashCode().)
	GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance.(Inherited from Object.)
	Parse(String)	Returns an instance of Size from a converted String.
	ToString()	Returns a String that represents this Size object. (Overrides ValueType.ToString().)
	ToString(IFormatProvider)	Returns a String that represents this instance of Size.

Operators

	Name	Description
	Equality(Size, Size)	Compares two instances of Size for equality.
	Explicit(Size to Point)	Explicitly converts an instance of Size to an instance of Point.
	Explicit(Size to Vector)	Explicitly converts an instance of Size to an instance of Vector.
	Inequality(Size, Size)	Compares two instances of Size for inequality.

Explicit Interface Implementations

	Name	Description
	IFormattable.ToString(String, IFormatProvider)	This type or member supports the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Remarks

Size is particularly useful because it describes both the Height and Width of an object. Size is used extensively by the layout system to arrange and measure elements.

XAML Attribute Usage

<object property="width,height"/>

XAML Values

width: A value greater than or equal to 0 that specifies the Width of the Size structure.
height: A value greater than or equal to 0 that specifies the Height of the Size structure.
