OrthographicCamera.Width Property

Definition

Namespace:

System.Windows.Media.Media3D

Assembly:

PresentationCore.dll

Gets or sets the width of the camera's viewing box, in world units.

public:
 property double Width { double get(); void set(double value); };

public double Width { get; set; }

member this.Width : double with get, set

Public Property Width As Double

Property Value

Double

Width of the camera's viewing box, in world units.

Examples

The following example creates an OrthographicCamera and sets this property.

//Toggle between camera projections.
public void ToggleCamera(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if ((bool)CameraCheck.IsChecked)
    {
        OrthographicCamera myOCamera = new OrthographicCamera(new Point3D(0, 0, -3), new Vector3D(0, 0, 1), new Vector3D(0, 1, 0), 3);
        myViewport.Camera = myOCamera;
    }
    if (!(bool)CameraCheck.IsChecked)
    {
        PerspectiveCamera myPCamera = new PerspectiveCamera(new Point3D(0, 0, -3), new Vector3D(0, 0, 1), new Vector3D(0, 1, 0), 50);
        myViewport.Camera = myPCamera;
    }
}

'Toggle between camera projections.
Public Sub ToggleCamera(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
    If CBool(CameraCheck.IsChecked) = True Then
        Dim myOCamera As New OrthographicCamera(New Point3D(0, 0, -3), New Vector3D(0, 0, 1), New Vector3D(0, 1, 0), 3)
        myViewport.Camera = myOCamera
    End If
    If CBool(CameraCheck.IsChecked) <> True Then
        Dim myPCamera As New PerspectiveCamera(New Point3D(0, 0, -3), New Vector3D(0, 0, 1), New Vector3D(0, 1, 0), 50)
        myViewport.Camera = myPCamera
    End If
End Sub

Remarks

Because the OrthographicCamera describes a projection that does not include perspective foreshortening, its viewing box has parallel sides. The width of the viewing box can therefore be specified with a single value.

The following diagram shows the difference between orthographic and perspective-foreshortened camera projections.
