Syntax

'Declaration
Public Property EnableCacheVisualization As Boolean

public bool EnableCacheVisualization { get; set; }

Property Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if cache visualization is enabled; otherwise, false.

Remarks

During profiling and performance tuning phases of application development, you can set EnableCacheVisualization to true to produce an overlay visualization of the areas in your UI that are being hardware accelerated. You can also set this property in the host HTML on the plug-in level. For more information, see EnableCacheVisualization (Silverlight Plug-in Object).

Important noteImportant Note:

Do not enable cache visualization in production code.

To visualize areas in your UI that are GPU accelerated, you must also enable GPU acceleration and set the cache mode for specific objects. Set EnableGPUAcceleration to true in the host HTML to enable GPU acceleration. For more information, see EnableGPUAcceleration (Silverlight Plug-in Object). You can also set the OutOfBrowserSettings.EnableGPUAcceleration property for out-of-browser applications. For more information, see How to: Configure an Application for Out-of-Browser Support.

To set the cache mode, set the UIElement.CacheMode property on specific objects that might invoke the GPU acceleration path for rendering.
