Edit

Base class of the composition API representing a node in the visual tree structure.

Composition objects are the visual tree structure on which all other features of the composition API use and build on. The API allows developers to define and create one or many Visual objects each representing a single node in a Visual tree.

Examples

This sample shows how the composition API can be used to create a self-contained app without using XAML, WWA, or DirectX. The sample initializes a new Compositor, and then creates a scene graph with two SpriteVisual objects.

This sample shows how to construct and walk a simple tree of Visuals to change opacity without using XAML, WWA, or DirectX. This sample builds on the previous sample to show how child Visuals are created, added and properties are changed.

In this scenario a Visual tree hierarchy of Visuals is built. Once a Compositor is created it is used to create objects which can then be managed.

Remarks

Objects are created using a Compositor object. The composition objects can be containers only or can hold content. The API allows for ease of use by providing a clear set of Visual objects for specific tasks that exist in a hierarchy:

Visual – base object, the majority of the properties are here, and inherited by the other Visual objects.
ContainerVisual – derives from Visual, and adds the ability to create children.
SpriteVisual – derives from ContainerVisual, and contains content in the form of images, effects, and swapchains.
Compositor – manages the relationship between an application and the system compositor process. Animations update the properties of any animatable composition object (such as Visual). There are two types of Animations:
KeyFrameAnimation: Time-based animations with two or more key frames. These frames are markers, allowing developers to define what the animated value should be at the specified time. Animations can additionally be fine-tuned by specifying how the animation interpolates (blends) the values between key frames. KeyFrameAnimation has many subclasses each supporting a different type of key frame value.
ExpressionAnimation: Animations that use a mathematical expression to specify how the animated value should be calculated each frame. The expressions can reference properties from composition objects. ExpressionAnimations are not time-based and are processed each frame (if necessary).

Primitive Visuals

Primitive Visuals (such as SpriteVisual) describe visual content on the screen, and the rendering options which will be applied to that content.

Effects

Effects can be attached to the visual tree in order to cause dynamic pixel changes to source content, such as images, or trees of visuals.

An effect can be simple operations such as a desaturation, more complicated operations such as blurs, or very complex A B blend operations such as cross fades.

See the remarks section of CompositionEffectBrush for additional information on creating and using effects.

Properties

Comment	A string to associate with the CompositionObject.
Compositor	The Compositor used to create this CompositionObject.
Dispatcher	The dispatcher for the CompositionObject.
DispatcherQueue	Gets the DispatcherQueue for the CompostionObject.
ImplicitAnimations	The collection of implicit animations attached to this object.
Properties	The collection of properties associated with the CompositionObject.

Methods

Close()	Closes the CompositionObject and releases system resources.
ConnectAnimation(String, CompositionAnimation)	Connects and animation.
DisconnectAnimation(String)	Disconnects an animation.
Dispose()	Performs application-defined tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources.
PopulatePropertyInfo(String, AnimationPropertyInfo)	Defines a property that can be animated.
StartAnimation(String, CompositionAnimation, AnimationController)	Connects an animation with the specified property of the object and starts the animation.
StartAnimation(String, CompositionAnimation)	Connects an animation with the specified property of the object and starts the animation.
StartAnimationGroup(ICompositionAnimationBase)	Starts an animation group. The StartAnimationGroup method on CompositionObject lets you start CompositionAnimationGroup. All the animations in the group will be started at the same time on the object.
StartAnimationGroupWithIAnimationObject(IAnimationObject, ICompositionAnimationBase)	Starts an animation group on the specified target.
StartAnimationWithIAnimationObject(IAnimationObject, String, CompositionAnimation)	Connects an animation with the specified property of the target object and starts the animation.
StopAnimation(String)	Disconnects an animation from the specified property and stops the animation.
StopAnimationGroup(ICompositionAnimationBase)	Stops an animation group.
TryGetAnimationController(String)	Returns an AnimationController for the animation running on the specified property.
