How to: Draw Text to a Visual
The following example shows how to draw text to a xref:System.Windows.Media.DrawingVisual using a xref:System.Windows.Media.DrawingContext object. A drawing context is returned by calling the xref:System.Windows.Media.DrawingVisual.RenderOpen%2A method of a xref:System.Windows.Media.DrawingVisual object. You can draw graphics and text into a drawing context.
To draw text into the drawing context, use the xref:System.Windows.Media.DrawingContext.DrawText%2A method of a xref:System.Windows.Media.DrawingContext object. When you are finished drawing content into the drawing context, call the xref:System.Windows.Media.DrawingContext.Close%2A method to close the drawing context and persist the content.
