I want to create a simple image viewer in WPF that will enable the user to:
- Pan (by mouse dragging the image).
- Zoom (with a slider).
- Show overlays (rectangle selection for example).
- Show original image (with scroll bars if needed).
Can you explain how to do it?
I didn't find a good sample on the web. Should I use ViewBox? Or ImageBrush? Do I need ScrollViewer?
The answer is
One addition to the superb solution provided by @Wieslaw Šoltés answer above
The existing code resets the image position using right click, but I am more accustomed to doing that with a double click. Just replace the existing child_MouseLeftButtonDown handler:
private void child_MouseLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
if (child != null)
{
var tt = GetTranslateTransform(child);
start = e.GetPosition(this);
origin = new Point(tt.X, tt.Y);
this.Cursor = Cursors.Hand;
child.CaptureMouse();
}
}
With this:
private void child_MouseLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
if ((e.ChangedButton == MouseButton.Left && e.ClickCount == 1))
{
if (child != null)
{
var tt = GetTranslateTransform(child);
start = e.GetPosition(this);
origin = new Point(tt.X, tt.Y);
this.Cursor = Cursors.Hand;
child.CaptureMouse();
}
}
if ((e.ChangedButton == MouseButton.Left && e.ClickCount == 2))
{
this.Reset();
}
}
Yet another version of the same kind of control. It has similar functionality as the others, but it adds:
- Touch support (drag/pinch)
- The image can be deleted (normally, the Image control locks the image on disk, so you cannot delete it).
- An inner border child, so the panned image doesn't overlap the border. In case of borders with rounded rectangles, look for ClippedBorder classes.
Usage is simple:
<Controls:ImageViewControl ImagePath="{Binding ...}" />
And the code:
public class ImageViewControl : Border
{
private Point origin;
private Point start;
private Image image;
public ImageViewControl()
{
ClipToBounds = true;
Loaded += OnLoaded;
}
#region ImagePath
/// <summary>

This will zoom in and out as well as pan but keep the image within the bounds of the container. Written as a control so add the style to the App.xaml directly or through the Themes/Viewport.xaml.
For readability I've also uploaded this on gist and github
I've also packaged this up on nuget

Any issues, give me a shout.
Happy coding :)
@Anothen and @Number8 - The Vector class is not available in Silverlight, so to make it work we just need to keep a record of the last position sighted the last time the MouseMove event was called, and compare the two points to find the difference; then adjust the transform.
XAML:
<Border Name="viewboxBackground" Background="Black">
<Viewbox Name="viewboxMain">
<!--contents go here-->
</Viewbox>
</Border>
Code-behind:
public Point _mouseClickPos;
public bool bMoving;
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
viewboxMain.RenderTransform = new CompositeTransform();
}
void MouseMoveHandler(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
if (bMoving)
{
//get current transform
CompositeTransform transform = viewboxMain.RenderTransform as CompositeTransform;
Point currentPos = e.GetPosition(viewboxBackground);
transform.TranslateX += (currentPos.X - _mouseClickPos.X) ;
transform.TranslateY += (currentPos.Y - _mouseClickPos.Y) ;
viewboxMain.RenderTransform = transform;
_mouseClickPos = currentPos;
}
}
void MouseClickHandler(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
_mouseClickPos = e.GetPosition(viewboxBackground);
bMoving = true;
}
void MouseReleaseHandler(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
bMoving = false;
}
Also note that you don't need a TransformGroup or collection to implement pan and zoom; instead, a CompositeTransform will do the trick with less hassle.
I'm pretty sure this is really inefficient in terms of resource usage, but at least it works :)
@ Merk
For ur solution insted of lambda expression you can use following code:
//var tt = (TranslateTransform)((TransformGroup)image.RenderTransform).Children.First(tr => tr is TranslateTransform);
TranslateTransform tt = null;
TransformGroup transformGroup = (TransformGroup)grid.RenderTransform;
for (int i = 0; i < transformGroup.Children.Count; i++)
{
if (transformGroup.Children[i] is TranslateTransform)
tt = (TranslateTransform)transformGroup.Children[i];
}
this code can be use as is for .Net Frame work 3.0 or 2.0
Hope It helps you :-)

I have an example of a full wpf project using this code on my website: Jot the sticky note app.
To zoom relative to the mouse position, all you need is:
var position = e.GetPosition(image1);
image1.RenderTransformOrigin = new Point(position.X / image1.ActualWidth, position.Y / image1.ActualHeight);
Try this Zoom Control: http://wpfextensions.codeplex.com
usage of the control is very simple, reference to the wpfextensions assembly than:
<wpfext:ZoomControl>
<Image Source="..."/>
</wpfext:ZoomControl>
Scrollbars not supported at this moment. (It will be in the next release which will be available in one or two week).
- Pan: Put the image inside of a Canvas. Implement Mouse Up, Down, and Move events to move the Canvas.Top, Canvas.Left properties. When down, you mark a isDraggingFlag to true, when up you set the flag to false. On move, you check if the flag is set, if it is you offset the Canvas.Top and Canvas.Left properties on the image within the canvas.
- Zoom: Bind the slider to the Scale Transform of the Canvas
- Show overlays: add additional canvas's with no background ontop the canvas containing the image.
- show original image: image control inside of a ViewBox
I also tried this answer but was not entirely happy with the result. I kept googling around and finally found a Nuget Package that helped me to manage the result I wanted, anno 2021. I would like to share it with the former developers of Stack Overflow.
I used this Nuget Package Gu.WPF.Geometry found via this Github Repository. All credits for develoment should go to Johan Larsson, the owner of this package.
How I used it? I wanted to have the commands as buttons below the zoombox, as shown here in MachineLayoutControl.xaml .
<UserControl
x:Class="MyLib.MachineLayoutControl"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:csmachinelayoutdrawlib="clr-namespace:CSMachineLayoutDrawLib"
xmlns:effects="http://gu.se/Geometry">
<UserControl.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary Source="Resources/ResourceDictionaries/AllResourceDictionariesCombined.xaml" />
</UserControl.Resources>
<Grid Margin="0">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="*" />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Border
Grid.Row="0"
Margin="0,0"
Padding="0"
BorderThickness="1"
Style="{StaticResource Border_Head}"
Visibility="Visible">
<effects:Zoombox
x:Name="ImageBox"
IsManipulationEnabled="True"
MaxZoom="10"
MinZoom="0.1"
Visibility="{Binding Zoombox_Visibility}">
<ContentControl Content="{Binding Viewing_Canvas}" />
</effects:Zoombox>
</Border>
<StackPanel
Grid.Column="1"
Margin="10"
HorizontalAlignment="Right"
Orientation="Horizontal">
<Button
Command="effects:ZoomCommands.Increase"
CommandParameter="2.0"
CommandTarget="{Binding ElementName=ImageBox}"
Content="Zoom In"
Style="{StaticResource StyleForResizeButtons}" />
<Button
Command="effects:ZoomCommands.Decrease"
CommandParameter="2.0"
CommandTarget="{Binding ElementName=ImageBox}"
Content="Zoom Out"
Style="{StaticResource StyleForResizeButtons}" />
<Button
Command="effects:ZoomCommands.Uniform"
CommandTarget="{Binding ElementName=ImageBox}"
Content="See Full Machine"
Style="{StaticResource StyleForResizeButtons}" />
<Button
Command="effects:ZoomCommands.UniformToFill"
CommandTarget="{Binding ElementName=ImageBox}"
Content="Zoom To Machine Width"
Style="{StaticResource StyleForResizeButtons}" />
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
In the underlying Viewmodel, I had the following relevant code:
public Visibility Zoombox_Visibility { get => movZoombox_Visibility; set { movZoombox_Visibility = value; OnPropertyChanged(nameof(Zoombox_Visibility)); } }
public Canvas Viewing_Canvas { get => mdvViewing_Canvas; private set => mdvViewing_Canvas = value; }
Also, I wanted that immediately on loading, the Uniform to Fill Command was executed, this is something that I managed to do in the code-behind MachineLayoutControl.xaml.cs . You see that I only set the Zoombox to visible if the command is executed, to avoid "flickering" when the usercontrol is loading.
public partial class MachineLayoutControl : UserControl
{
#region Constructors
public MachineLayoutControl()
{
InitializeComponent();
Loaded += MyWindow_Loaded;
}
#endregion Constructors
#region EventHandlers
private void MyWindow_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
Application.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(
DispatcherPriority.ApplicationIdle,
new Action(() =>
{
ZoomCommands.Uniform.Execute(null, ImageBox);
((MachineLayoutControlViewModel)DataContext).Zoombox_Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
}));
}
#endregion EventHandlers
}
