Provides generalized transformation support for objects. GeneralTransform is a base class that's in the hierarchy of practical transform classes such as TranslateTransform.

Geometry

Provides a base class for objects that define geometric shapes. Geometry objects can be used for clipping regions and as geometry definitions for rendering two-dimensional graphical data as a Path.

GeometryCollection

Represents a collection of Geometry objects.

GeometryGroup

GradientBrush

An abstract class that describes a gradient, composed of gradient stops.

GradientStop

Describes the location and color of a transition point in a gradient.

Represents a collection of GradientStop objects that can be individually accessed by index.

ImageBrush

Paints an area with an image. The image source is typically obtained from file formats such as Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG).

ImageSource

Provides an object source type for the Image.Source and ImageBrush.ImageSource properties.

LinearGradientBrush

Paints an area with a linear gradient.

LineGeometry

Represents the geometry of a line.

Represents a line drawn between two points, which can be part of a PathFigure within Path data.

LoadedImageSourceLoadCompletedEventArgs

Provides event data for the LoadedImageSurface.LoadCompleted event.

LoadedImageSurface

Represents a composition surface that an image can be downloaded, decoded and loaded onto. You can load an image using a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that references an image source file, or supplying a IRandomAccessStream.

Matrix3DProjection

Applies a Matrix3D projection to an object.

MatrixHelper

Provides static helper methods for processing Matrix values. C# and Microsoft Visual Basic code should use members of Matrix instead.

MatrixTransform

Creates an arbitrary affine matrix transformation that is used to manipulate objects or coordinate systems in a two-dimensional plane.

MediaTransportControlsThumbnailRequestedEventArgs

Provides data for the MediaTransportControls.ThumbnailRequested event.

MicaBackdrop

Represents a system backdrop that applies Mica material to a supported XAML surface, such as a Window.

PathFigure

Represents a subsection of a geometry, a single connected series of two-dimensional geometric segments.

PathFigureCollection

Represents a collection of PathFigure objects that collectively make up the geometry of a PathGeometry.

PathGeometry

Represents a complex vector-based shape that may be composed of arcs, curves, ellipses, lines, and rectangles.

PathSegment

Represents a segment of a PathFigure object. Derived classes of PathFigure describe different types of segments.

PathSegmentCollection

Represents a collection of PathSegment objects that can be individually accessed by index.

PlaneProjection

Represents a perspective transform (a 3-D-like effect) on an object.

PointCollection

Represents a collection of Point values that can be individually accessed by index.

PolyBezierSegment

Represents one or more cubic Bezier curves.

PolyLineSegment

Represents a set of line segments defined by a Point collection with each Point specifying the end point of a line segment.

PolyQuadraticBezierSegment

Represents a set of quadratic Bezier segments.

Projection

Provides a base class for projections, which describe how to transform an object in 3-D space using perspective transforms.

QuadraticBezierSegment

Creates a quadratic Bezier curve between two points in a PathFigure.

RadialGradientBrush

RadialGradientBrush paints an area with a radial gradient. A center point defines the origin of the gradient, and an ellipse defines the outer bounds of the gradient.

RectangleGeometry

Describes a two-dimensional rectangular geometry.

RenderedEventArgs

Provides event data for the Rendered event.

RenderingEventArgs

Provides event data for the Rendering event.

RotateTransform

Rotates an object around a specified point in a two-dimensional x-y coordinate system.

ScaleTransform

Scales an object in the two-dimensional x-y coordinate system.

Shadow

The base class for shadow effects that can be applied to a XAML element.

SkewTransform

Represents a two-dimensional skew.

SolidColorBrush

Paints an area with a solid color. The solid color is defined by a Color value.

SystemBackdrop

Base class for custom system backdrops used to render materials like Mica and Acrylic.

ThemeShadow

A ThemeShadow is a preconfigured shadow effect that can be applied to any XAML element to draw shadows appropriately based on x, y, z coordinates. ThemeShadow also automatically adjusts for other environmental specifications:

  • Adapts to changes in lighting, user theme, app environment, and shell.
  • Shadows elements automatically based on their elevation.
  • Keeps elements in sync as they move and change elevation.
  • Keeps shadows consistent throughout and across applications.
TileBrush

Base class that describes a way to paint a region. Parent of ImageBrush.

Transform

Defines functionality that enables transformations in a two-dimensional plane.

TransformCollection

Represents a collection of Transform objects that can be individually accessed by index.

TransformGroup

Represents a composite Transform composed of other Transform objects.

TranslateTransform

Translates (moves) an object in the two-dimensional x-y coordinate system.

VisualTreeHelper

Provides utility methods that can be used to traverse object relationships (along child-object or parent-object axes) in the visual tree of your app.

XamlCompositionBrushBase

Provides a base class used to create XAML brushes that paint an area with a CompositionBrush.

XamlLight

Provides a base class used to create XAML lights that use a CompositionLight to apply lighting effects to XAML elements and brushes.
