Remarks

You can use the Source property to reference images in the JPEG and PNG file formats.

If the Source property is set to an invalid format, or it specifies a URI that cannot be resolved, the ImageFailed event is raised. Also, an error is raised, reporting a failure in the SetValue method for Source.

Silverlight does not support all possible color depths that are included in the PNG specification. Silverlight supports the following PNG color depths:

  • Indexed color—1-bit, 4-bit, or 8-bit color depth (per channel).

  • TrueColor: 24-bit color depth, or 32-bit color depth (per channel) for TrueColor plus alpha.

NoteNote:

Silverlight does not support gray scale (with or without alpha) or 64-bit TrueColor.

Height or Width for an image may not be valid until ImageOpened is raised, because the image takes a short time to decode the source.

Example

The following XAML example shows how to set the Source property of the Image object to a PNG file. In addition, the example uses the same PNG image file as an ImageBrush object for the TextBlock object that displays a photo caption.

<Canvas
  xmlns="https://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
  Background="Wheat">

  <!-- Photo of Cat. -->
  <Image
    Source="CatInTheSnow.png"
    Canvas.Left="30" Canvas.Top="30" />

  <!-- Caption of the photo consists of shadow text and image text. -->
  <!-- Offset the shadow text by using a TranslateTransform. -->
  <TextBlock
    Text="Cat's Day in the Snow"
    Canvas.Left="34" Canvas.Top="336"
    FontFamily="Verdana"
    FontWeight="Bold"
    FontSize="30">
    <TextBlock.RenderTransform>
      <TranslateTransform X="2" Y="2" />
    </TextBlock.RenderTransform>
  </TextBlock>

  <!-- Use an ImageBrush for the fill of the TextBlock. -->
  <TextBlock
    Text="Cat's Day in the Snow"
    Canvas.Left="34" Canvas.Top="336"
    FontFamily="Verdana"
    FontWeight="Bold"
    FontSize="30">
    <TextBlock.Foreground>
      <ImageBrush ImageSource="CatInTheSnow.png" />
    </TextBlock.Foreground>
  </TextBlock>

</Canvas>
