DocumentViewer Styling Sample

  • Artículo

The DocViewerStyling sample shows how through the use of styles you can change the appearance and behavior of a DocumentViewer control. When executed, the sample displays a menu bar with "File" and "Style" options. When "File | Open..." is selected, a "File Open..." dialog displays enabling the user to browse and select an XpsDocument file to open (a sample XPS document is provided). When a document is opened, its content is displayed in the DocumentViewer control of the main application window. By selecting different options under the "Style" menu, you can select different styles to change the appearance and behavior of the DocumentViewer control.

The DocViewerStyling sample consists of four source files:

  • App.xaml - XAML resources and DocumentViewer styles that are used by the application.

  • App.xaml.cs - Code-behind for creating and displaying the application window.

  • Window1.xaml - XAML declarations that define the elements of the application window: main menu, menu commands, and DocumentViewer control.

  • Window1.xaml.cs - Code-behind supporting the user interface for the "File" and "Style" menu commands.

This sample demonstrates a specific feature of the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and, consequently, does not follow application development best practices. For comprehensive coverage of WPF and Microsoft .NET Framework application development best practices, refer to the following as appropriate:
