Dynamically Resizing Visual Elements with ScaleTransform
ScaleTransform enables you to dynamically resize a control. The following code demonstrates how a ListBox can be scaled to different dimensions:
<ListBox Name="ScaleListBox" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1" Style="{StaticResource ListStyle}"> <ListBox.RenderTransform> <ScaleTransform CenterX="0" CenterY="0" ScaleX="0.6" ScaleY="0.6"/> </ListBox.RenderTransform></ListBox>
Notice how scaling is expressed in percentage with the ScaleX and ScaleY properties. A value of 0.6 means that the control is scaled to 60% of its original dimensions. A value of 1 means 100% (that is, the original size), whereas a value bigger than 1 enlarges the visual element. ...
