RadBook Zoom In/Out and Panning by Touch

[Mandeep]

Hi Team,

I have purchased the telerik licences  recently. I am using  RadBooK control for showing PDF file as needed the functionality  to change the pages horizontally(Swipe functionality).
But my requirement is also to have Zoom in/out and Panning feature by touch(and multi-touch also).

Please guide me for achieving this functionality. It will be great if you can also provide Code snippets or relevant links.

Thanks,
Mandeep Kaur.

Hi,

The standalone RadPdfViewer control supports both zoom and pan. However in order to display a PDF file in the RadBook control, you need to use a FixedDocumentSinglePagePresenter for each page and it doesn't support zoom and pan.

Also, as the RadBook control is essentially an ItemsControl and you can wrap pretty much anything in its RadBookItem, we can't implement a common out-of-the-box zoom or pan functionality for the pages. However, you can try to use a ScaleTransform to create a custom zoom in functionality like so:

this.book.RenderTransform = newScaleTransform()
 {
     ScaleX = scaleFactor,
     ScaleY = scaleFactor,
     CenterX = centerX,
     CenterY = centerY
 };

Kind regards,
Tina Stancheva
