How to know when the RadMap is finished rendering

[D Warren]

I'm trying to render the RadMap as an image at the request of a user via a command. I need the command to be disabled until the RadMap is finished rendering otherwise it is possible for the rendered image to be missing parts of the map. How do I know when the RadMap is finished rendering?

Hello Jason,

Unfortunately, the map control does not contain an event that occurs when the map is initialized and the tile images of map are downloaded and are rendered completely. Creating of this event is not in our plans for Q3 2011 and it does not seem to be a trivial one. I will make sure it is reconsidered when discussing our future plans, but I am afraid no certain time frame can be given at the moment.

All the best,

Thanks for the reply. I also found this http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/wpf/thread/693fbedb-efa6-413e-ab66-530c6961d3fb It mostly talks about how WPF lacks the ability to sync the UI thread and the hidden Render thread, in otherwords WPF lacks the ability to know when rendering is truly complete for a single control. Thanks for the help though. If y'all ever figure out a way to know if the map is done showing all of it's content please post the solution here.
