How to: Draw an Image Using ImageDrawing

This example shows how to use an xref:System.Windows.Media.ImageDrawing to draw an image. An xref:System.Windows.Media.ImageDrawing enables you display an xref:System.Windows.Media.ImageSource with a xref:System.Windows.Media.DrawingBrush, xref:System.Windows.Media.DrawingImage, or xref:System.Windows.Media.Visual. To draw an image, you create an xref:System.Windows.Media.ImageDrawing and set its xref:System.Windows.Media.ImageDrawing.ImageSource%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType and xref:System.Windows.Media.ImageDrawing.Rect%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType properties. The xref:System.Windows.Media.ImageDrawing.ImageSource%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType property specifies the image to draw, and the xref:System.Windows.Media.ImageDrawing.Rect%2A?displayProperty=nameWithType property specifies the position and size of each image.

Example

The following example creates a composite drawing using four xref:System.Windows.Media.ImageDrawing objects. This example produces the following image:

Several DrawingImage objects
Four ImageDrawing objects

For an example showing a simple way to display an image without using xref:System.Windows.Media.ImageDrawing, see Use the Image Element.
