Remarks

Dependency property identifier field: ViewportSizeProperty

The units that are used for ViewportSize are the same units that are used to describe the length of the content. Some examples include lines of text or pages of text.

The value of the ViewportSize property is used to calculate the size of the Thumb control that is displayed as the sliding value indicator in a ScrollBar control. The Thumb control has a minimum size that is defined by the operating system. The size of a Thumb control becomes larger as more content is visible. The size of a Thumb control represents the amount of content that is visible. For example, if 25 percent of a Thumb control's content is visible, the control occupies 25 percent of the track in which it moves.
