Scale Transform

[Mark]

Hi! Trying to do a simple scale transformation but the html host control does some odd things. While I know that we need to trigger the measure pass to see the changes, it appears that when we scale the host down 50% it doesn't maintain the notion of the center point. Meaning... instead of scaling down in the center of the screen... the host moves to the lower right.

Hi Mark,

This is not supported scenario. We are using Html tags to render the html content over the SL application. Thus applying a ScaleTransform will not affect your html content.

With SL4 the HtmlBrush and WebBrowserControl are supporting this scenario, but only in OOB mode. We will accomodate these controls with our SL4 release, but still when the Html is rendered in Browser mode the ScaleTransform will not work.

We are similarly attempting to scale our HtmlPlaceholder in non-OOB mode ~ is there any way to accomplish this using the latest version of your Silverlight controls?

Thanks,

Hello Mark,

As Valentin explained the RadHtmlPlaceHolder control is essentially an IFRAME element that is positioned above the Silverlight plugin. Therefore when the control is rendered in a browser scenario the scale transformations won't be applied.
