VelloSharp.Integration.Wpf

VelloSharp.Integration.Wpf ships the interop components required to host Vello-rendered content inside Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications.

Getting Started​

  1. Install the package: dotnet add package VelloSharp.Integration.Wpf.
  2. Add using VelloSharp.Integration.Wpf; to the project that configures your WPF application.
  3. Use the controls or helpers provided by this package to embed Vello surfaces inside WPF windows, handling resize and DPI changes.
  4. Combine the integration with VelloSharp.WinForms.Core or VelloSharp.Windows.Core when you need shared device lifetimes across different interop hosts.

Usage Example​

<Window x:Class="VelloDemo.MainWindow"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        xmlns:vello="clr-namespace:VelloSharp.Wpf.Integration;assembly=VelloSharp.Integration.Wpf"
        Title="VelloSharp WPF" Height="450" Width="800">
    <vello:VelloNativeSwapChainView RenderMode="Continuous"
                                    PreferredBackend="Gpu"
                                    RenderSurface="OnRenderSurface" />
</Window>
