Syntax

XAML Values
singleBrush
Within opening and closing property elements for Glyphs.Fill, exactly one object element for an object that derives from Brush. The object element is typically one of the following Silverlight classes: ImageBrush, LinearGradientBrush, RadialGradientBrush, SolidColorBrush, or VideoBrush.colorString
The Color for a SolidColorBrush expressed as an attribute string. This can be a named color, an RGB value, or an ScRGB value. RGB or ScRGB may also specify alpha information.
Property Value
Type: System.Windows.Media.Brush
The brush to use to render the glyphs. The default is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), which is evaluated as Transparent for rendering.
Remarks
Dependency property identifier field: FillProperty
Glyphs that fill with the default nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) setting cannot be hit-tested. Glyphs that fill with the Transparent setting can be hit-tested.
The first XAML syntax shown is an attribute syntax. Use this syntax when you want the Fill to be a SolidColorBrush, which can be expressed as its Color value, for example "Red" or "#FF0000".
The second XAML syntax shown is a property element syntax. Use this syntax when you want the Fill to be a more complex brush than a SolidColorBrush, such as ImageBrush, LinearGradientBrush, or RadialGradientBrush.

The default Fill is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic). Therefore in order to render anything with Glyphs you should specify a Fill either in XAML or script. This is in contrast to Foreground, which defaults to Transparent. |
