Visual Basic 2015 Unleashed

Summary

This chapter was an overview about manipulating media and documents in WPF 4.6. You saw how you can present pictures with the Image control and how to reproduce media contents, such as videos and audio, through the MediaElement control, which also exposes events that you can intercept to understand the state of reproduction. Then flow documents and the FlowDocumentReader and RichTextBox controls were covered, examining how documents can be produced for dynamic arrangement within the user interface. Finally, the chapter discussed WPF support for XPS documents through the DocumentViewer control and the XpsDocument class.
