Programming With Silverlight Controls

The Leadtools.Silverlight.Controls Assembly contains an image viewer control that supports loading and displaying all Silverlight supported image formats. It also includes several user interactive modes including pan, scale, center at, zoom to, and a customizable magnifying glass. Additionally, images can be zoomed and displayed using several different size modes such as normal, fit, fit width, and stretch. To make the navigation of large or zoomed images easier, the viewer also includes a pan window. The control also integrates seamlessly with the Silverlight Framework by using a standard System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapImage as it’s source.

When used in conjunction with LEADTOOLS WCF Services, the Silverlight Viewer can load over 150 different file formats. LEAD WCF Services also add support for document image clean up, image processing, and barcode reading and writing.

LEADTOOLS Silverlight includes:

  • A separate Pan Window Control for navigating larger images in the main control. Each Pan Window can be attached to any viewer control. Since the Pan Window is it’s own control, it can be positioned and treated just like any other Silverlight Control in XAML.

  • Several size modes which can be applied to the viewer (with the ability to scroll) including Normal, Fit, FitAlways, FitWidth, and Stretch.

  • Several interactive modes which can be applied to the viewer including pan, scale, center at, and zoom to.

  • Customizable magnifying glass which can be applied to the viewer. Configurable options include scale, shape, size, crosshair, and more.

  • Ability to integrate with LEADTOOLS WCF Services allowing support for 150+ formats, document cleanup functions, image processing, and barcode reading and writing.
