I'm hoping someone can help me out here. I'm building a WPF imaging application that takes live images from a camera allowing users to view the image, and subsequently highlight regions of interest (ROI) on that image. Information about the ROIs (width, height, location relative to a point on the image, etc) is then sent back to the camera, in effect telling/training the camera firmware where to look for things like barcodes, text, liquid levels, turns on a screw, etc. on the image). A desired feature is the ability to pan and zoom the image and it's ROIs, as well as scroll when the image is zoomed larger than the viewing area. The StrokeThickness and FontSize of the ROI's need to keep there original scale, but the width and height of the shapes within an ROI need to scale with the image (this is critical to capture exact pixel locations to transmit to the camera). I've got most of this worked out with the exception of scrolling and a few other issues. My two areas of concern are:
When I introduce a ScrollViewer I don't get any scroll behavior. As I understand it I need to introduce a LayoutTransform to get the correct ScrollViewer behavior. However when I do that other areas start to break down (e.g. ROIs don't hold their correct position over the image, or the mouse pointer begins to creep away from the selected point on the image when panning, or the left corner of my image bounces to the current mouse position on MouseDown .)
I can't quite get the scaling of my ROI's the way I need them. I have this working, but it is not ideal. What I have doesn't retain the exact stroke thickness, and I haven't looked into ignoring scale on the textblocks. Hopefully you'll see what I'm doing in the code samples.
I'm sure my issue has something to do with my lack of understanding of Transforms and their relationship to the WPF layout system. Hopefully a rendition of the code that exhibits what I've accomplished so far will help (see below).
FYI, if Adorners are the suggestion, that may not work in my scenario because I could end up with more adorners than are supported (rumor 144 adorners is when things start breaking down).
First off, below is a screenshot showing an image with to ROI's (text and a shape). The rectangle, ellipse and text need to follow the area on the image in scale and rotation, but not they shouldn't scale in thickness or fontsize.
Here's the XAML that is showing the above image, along with a Slider for zooming (mousewheel zoom will come later)

Here's the C# that manages pan and zoom.
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
private Point origin;
private Point start;
private Slider _slider;
public MainWindow()
{
this.InitializeComponent();
//Setup a transform group that we'll use to manage panning of the image area
TransformGroup group = new TransformGroup();
ScaleTransform st = new ScaleTransform();
group.Children.Add(st);
TranslateTransform tt = new TranslateTransform();
group.Children.Add(tt);
//Wire up the slider to the image for zooming
_slider = _ImageZoomSlider;
_slider.ValueChanged += _ImageZoomSlider_ValueChanged;
st.ScaleX = _slider.Value;
st.ScaleY = _slider.Value;
//_ImageScrollArea.RenderTransformOrigin = new Point(0.5, 0.5);
//_ImageScrollArea.LayoutTransform = group;
_DisplayImage.RenderTransformOrigin = new Point(0.5, 0.5);
_DisplayImage.RenderTransform = group;
_ROICollectionCanvas.RenderTransformOrigin = new Point(0.5, 0.5);
_ROICollectionCanvas.RenderTransform = group;
}
//Captures the mouse to prepare for panning the scrollable image area
private void ImageScrollArea_MouseLeftButtonUp(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
_DisplayImage.ReleaseMouseCapture();
}
//Moves/Pans the scrollable image area assuming mouse is captured.
private void ImageScrollArea_MouseMove(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
if (!_DisplayImage.IsMouseCaptured) return;
var tt = (TranslateTransform)((TransformGroup)_DisplayImage.RenderTransform).Children.First(tr => tr is TranslateTransform);
Vector v = start - e.GetPosition(border);
tt.X = origin.X - v.X;
tt.Y = origin.Y - v.Y;
}
//Cleanup for Move/Pan when mouse is released
private void ImageScrollArea_MouseLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
_DisplayImage.CaptureMouse();
var tt = (TranslateTransform)((TransformGroup)_DisplayImage.RenderTransform).Children.First(tr => tr is TranslateTransform);
start = e.GetPosition(border);
origin = new Point(tt.X, tt.Y);
}
//Zoom according to the slider changes
private void _ImageZoomSlider_ValueChanged(object sender, RoutedPropertyChangedEventArgs<double> e)
{
//Panel panel = _ImageScrollArea;
Image panel = _DisplayImage;
//Set the scale coordinates on the ScaleTransform from the slider
ScaleTransform transform = (ScaleTransform)((TransformGroup)panel.RenderTransform).Children.First(tr => tr is ScaleTransform);
transform.ScaleX = _slider.Value;
transform.ScaleY = _slider.Value;
//Set the zoom (this will affect rotate too) origin to the center of the panel
panel.RenderTransformOrigin = new Point(0.5, 0.5);
foreach (UIElement child in _ROICollectionCanvas.Children)
{
//Assume all shapes are contained in a panel
Panel childPanel = child as Panel;
var x = childPanel.Children;
//Shape width and heigh should scale, but not StrokeThickness
foreach (var shape in childPanel.Children.OfType<Shape>())
{
if (shape.Tag == null)
{
//Hack: This is be a property on a usercontrol in my solution
shape.Tag = shape.StrokeThickness;
}
double orignalStrokeThickness = (double)shape.Tag;
//Attempt to keep the underlying shape border/stroke from thickening as well
double newThickness = shape.StrokeThickness - (orignalStrokeThickness / transform.ScaleX);
shape.StrokeThickness -= newThickness;
}
}
}
}
The code should work in a .NET 4.0 or 4.5 project and solution, assuming no cut/paste errors.
Any thoughts? Suggestions are welcome.
Ok. This is my take on what you described.
It looks like this:
Since I'm not applying any RenderTransforms, I get the desired Scrollbar / ScrollViewer functionality.
MVVM, which is THE way to go in WPF. UI and data are independent thus the DataItems only have double and int properties for X,Y, Width,Height, etc that you can use for whatever purposes or even store them in a Database.
I added the whole stuff inside a Thumb to handle the panning. You will still need to do something about the Panning that occurs when you are dragging / resizing a ROI via the ResizerControl. I guess you can check for Mouse.DirectlyOver or something.
I actually used a ListBox to handle the ROIs so that you may have 1 selected ROI at any given time. This toggles the Resizing Functionality. So that if you click on a ROI, you will get the resizer visible.
The Scaling is handled at the ViewModel level, thus eliminating the need for custom Panels or stuff like that (though #Clemens' solution is nice as well)
I'm using an Enum and some DataTriggers to define the Shapes. See the DataTemplate DataType={x:Type local:ROI} part.
WPF Rocks. Just Copy and paste my code in a File -> New Project -> WPF Application and see the results for yourself.

In order to transform shapes without changing their stroke thickness, you may use Path objects with transformed geometries.
The following XAML puts an Image and two Paths on a Canvas. The Image is scaled and translated by a RenderTransform. The same transform is also used for the Transform property of the geometries of the two Paths.
<Canvas>
<Image Source="C:\Users\Public\Pictures\Sample Pictures\Desert.jpg">
<Image.RenderTransform>
<TransformGroup x:Name="transform">
<ScaleTransform ScaleX="0.5" ScaleY="0.5"/>
<TranslateTransform X="100" Y="50"/>
</TransformGroup>
</Image.RenderTransform>
</Image>
<Path Stroke="Orange" StrokeThickness="2">
<Path.Data>
<RectangleGeometry Rect="50,100,100,50"
Transform="{Binding ElementName=transform}"/>
</Path.Data>
</Path>
<Path Stroke="Orange" StrokeThickness="2">
<Path.Data>
<EllipseGeometry Center="250,100" RadiusX="50" RadiusY="50"
Transform="{Binding ElementName=transform}"/>
</Path.Data>
</Path>
</Canvas>
Your application may now simply change the transform object in response to input events like MouseMove or MouseWheel.
Things get a little bit trickier when it comes to also transforming TextBlocks or other element that should not be scaled, but only be moved to a proper location.
You may create a specialized Panel which is able to apply this kind of transform to its child elements. Such a Panel would define an attached property that controls the position of a child element, and would apply the transform to this position instead of the RenderTransform or LayoutTransform of the child.
This may give you an idea of how such a Panel could be implemented:
public class TransformPanel : Panel
{
public static readonly DependencyProperty TransformProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register(
"Transform", typeof(Transform), typeof(TransformPanel),
new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(Transform.Identity,
FrameworkPropertyMetadataOptions.AffectsArrange));
public static readonly DependencyProperty PositionProperty =
DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached(
"Position", typeof(Point?), typeof(TransformPanel),
new PropertyMetadata(PositionPropertyChanged));
public Transform Transform
{
get { return (Transform)GetValue(TransformProperty); }
set { SetValue(TransformProperty, value); }
}
public static Point? GetPosition(UIElement element)
{
return (Point?)element.GetValue(PositionProperty);
}
public static void SetPosition(UIElement element, Point? value)
{
element.SetValue(PositionProperty, value);
}
protected override Size MeasureOverride(Size availableSize)
{
var infiniteSize = new Size(double.PositiveInfinity,
double.PositiveInfinity);
foreach (UIElement element in InternalChildren)
{
element.Measure(infiniteSize);
}
return new Size();
}
protected override Size ArrangeOverride(Size finalSize)
{
foreach (UIElement element in InternalChildren)
{
ArrangeElement(element, GetPosition(element));
}
return finalSize;
}
private void ArrangeElement(UIElement element, Point? position)
{
var arrangeRect = new Rect(element.DesiredSize);
if (position.HasValue && Transform != null)
{
arrangeRect.Location = Transform.Transform(position.Value);
}
element.Arrange(arrangeRect);
}
private static void PositionPropertyChanged(
DependencyObject obj, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
var element = (UIElement)obj;
var panel = VisualTreeHelper.GetParent(element) as TransformPanel;
if (panel != null)
{
panel.ArrangeElement(element, (Point?)e.NewValue);
}
}
}
It would be used in XAML like this:
<local:TransformPanel>
<local:TransformPanel.Transform>
<TransformGroup>
<ScaleTransform ScaleX="0.5" ScaleY="0.5" x:Name="scale"/>
<TranslateTransform X="100"/>
</TransformGroup>
</local:TransformPanel.Transform>
<Image Source="C:\Users\Public\Pictures\Sample Pictures\Desert.jpg"
RenderTransform="{Binding Transform, RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, AncestorType=local:TransformPanel}}"/>
<Path Stroke="Orange" StrokeThickness="2">
<Path.Data>
<RectangleGeometry Rect="50,100,100,50"
Transform="{Binding Transform, RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, AncestorType=local:TransformPanel}}"/>
</Path.Data>
</Path>
<Path Stroke="Orange" StrokeThickness="2">
<Path.Data>
<EllipseGeometry Center="250,100" RadiusX="50" RadiusY="50"
Transform="{Binding Transform, RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, AncestorType=local:TransformPanel}}"/>
</Path.Data>
</Path>
<TextBlock Text="Rectangle" local:TransformPanel.Position="50,150"/>
<TextBlock Text="Ellipse" local:TransformPanel.Position="200,150"/>
</local:TransformPanel>
Well this answer doesn't really help OP with his more specified issue but in general, camera panning, zooming in and out, and looking around (using the mouse) is quite difficult and so I just wanted to give some insight on how I implemented camera movement into my viewport scene (like Blender or Unity etc.)
This is the class called CameraPan, which contains some variables you can customize to edit the zooming in and out distance/speed, pan speed and camera look sensitivity. At the bottom of the class there is some hashed out code that represents the basic implementation into any scene. You first need to create a viewport and assign it to a 'Border' (which is a UI element that can handle mouse events since Viewport can't) and also create a camera alongside a couple of other public variables that are accessed from the CameraPan Class:
public partial class CameraPan
{
Point TemporaryMousePosition;
Point3D PreviousCameraPosition;
Quaternion QuatX;
Quaternion PreviousQuatX;
Quaternion QuatY;
Quaternion PreviousQuatY;
private readonly float PanSpeed = 4f;
private readonly float LookSensitivity = 100f;
private readonly float ZoomInOutDistance = 1f;
private readonly MainWindow mainWindow = Application.Current.Windows.OfType<MainWindow>().FirstOrDefault();
public Vector3D LookDirection(PerspectiveCamera camera, Point3D pointToLookAt) // Calculates vector direction between two points (LookAt() method)
{
Point3D CameraPosition = camera.Position;
Vector3D VectorDirection = new Vector3D
(pointToLookAt.X - CameraPosition.X,
pointToLookAt.Y - CameraPosition.Y,
pointToLookAt.Z - CameraPosition.Z);
return VectorDirection;
}
public void PanLookAroundViewport_MouseMove(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) // Panning the viewport using the camera
{
if (e.MiddleButton == MouseButtonState.Pressed)
{
Point mousePos = e.GetPosition(sender as Border); // Gets the current mouse pos
Point3D newCamPos = new Point3D(
((-mousePos.X + TemporaryMousePosition.X) / mainWindow.Width * PanSpeed) + PreviousCameraPosition.X,
((mousePos.Y - TemporaryMousePosition.Y) / mainWindow.Height * PanSpeed) + PreviousCameraPosition.Y,
mainWindow.MainCamera.Position.Z); // Calculates the proportional distance to move the camera,
//can be increased by changing the variable 'PanSpeed'
if (Keyboard.IsKeyDown(Key.LeftCtrl)) // Pan viewport
{
mainWindow.MainCamera.Position = newCamPos;
}
else // Look around viewport
{
double RotY = (e.GetPosition(sender as Label).X - TemporaryMousePosition.X) / mainWindow.Width * LookSensitivity; // MousePosX is the Y axis of a rotation
double RotX = (e.GetPosition(sender as Label).Y - TemporaryMousePosition.Y) / mainWindow.Height * LookSensitivity; // MousePosY is the X axis of a rotation
QuatX = Quaternion.Multiply(new Quaternion(new Vector3D(1, 0, 0), -RotX), PreviousQuatX);
QuatY = Quaternion.Multiply(new Quaternion(new Vector3D(0, 1, 0), -RotY), PreviousQuatY);
Quaternion QuaternionRotation = Quaternion.Multiply(QuatX, QuatY); // Composite Quaternion between the x rotation and the y rotation
mainWindow.camRotateTransform.Rotation = new QuaternionRotation3D(QuaternionRotation); // MainCamera.Transform = RotateTransform3D 'camRotateTransform'
}
}
}
public void MiddleMouseButton_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) // Declares some constants when mouse button 3 is first held down
{
if (e.MiddleButton == MouseButtonState.Pressed)
{
var mainWindow = Application.Current.Windows.OfType<MainWindow>().FirstOrDefault();
TemporaryMousePosition = e.GetPosition(sender as Label);

The mouse event handlers run the specified camera pan functions depending on mouse and key events. The setup is similar to Unity Viewport controls (middle mouse to look around, middle mouse + CTRL to pan around, scroll wheel to zoom).
Here is my full implementation of the camera pan if you want it. It includes a scene that draws a red cube and lets you pan around the scene using the camera:

I hope it helps someone in the future!
I know this type of question has been asked before, But I have tried the suggestions to no avail, so hopefully some fresh eyes can help me on this.
I have a Custom Control, which is basically a Border with a grid inside which contains 2 textboxes and a button.
The control also has a octagon that is added in codebehind.
The button's click event does not fire. I gather it has probably got something to do with the controls above it getting the click event instead of the Button, but I don't know how to solve it. Or perhaps because the octagon is drawn afterwards in the code behind.
I have tried so many different things, moving the button, adding another grid, setting the background to Transparent. This is driving me nuts.
Below is the code.

Update:
I have tested quickly putting MouseLeftButtonUp events on the grid and the border.
When I click the border, first the grid event fires, then the border event fires, but if I click the button, nothing fires. Does this mean the Button is above the grid and border so should be firing the event?
I will try some of the other suggestions as well in the meant time.
Neill
Update 2:
It gets stranger. I moved the button to the top and then click event fires. What I see is that from a certain Y point and below, absolutely no mouseleftbuttonup or click events fire, nada. This makes no sense. If I go from the bottom and click moving slowly up, then at a certain point, all events start firing.
Neill
Update 3
Hi all,
After removing controls one by one to see what is causing the issue, I now know it is the Border control. If I remove it, all works fine, when it is back, same problem as before. Any ideas?
Thanks
Neill
Update 4
Hi all,
OK so I finally sorted out the problem, so in case anybody finds themselves in a similar situation. It had nothing to do with that page at all. I am loading the page in a frame from a different page and what it seems is that I had to many row definitions set in the grid on the main page. After I corrected that, everything works fine.
Thanks
First try fill button by Transparent color (00000000).
Also you can send solution or part of it to me and I shall try to help.
