Scaled down UC (70%):

Well I achieve this in picture editor, but I would like in WPF. :) I need this to adjust my application to different screen resolution, while nothing hiding (no scrollbars).


Solution

  • You could try the ViewBox control that scales up/down its content so that it fills the available space.

    <Window x:Class="WpfApplication1.Window1"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApplication1"
    Title="Window1">
    <Grid>
        <Viewbox StretchDirection="Both" Stretch="Uniform">
            <local:UserControl1 Height="600" Width="600"/>
        </Viewbox>
    </Grid>
