Remarks

Use the AdornerFonts class to standardize the appearance of your custom adorner controls. By using this pre-defined font family and size, your custom adorners participate in the color scheme of the WPF Designer.

Examples

The following code example shows how to use the AdornerFonts class to set the font family and size of a CheckBox control. For more information, see Walkthrough: Debugging WPF Custom Controls at Design Time.

' The constructor sets up the adorner control. 
Public Sub New()
    autoSizeCheckBox = New CheckBox()
    autoSizeCheckBox.Content = "AutoSize"
    autoSizeCheckBox.IsChecked = True
    autoSizeCheckBox.FontFamily = AdornerFonts.FontFamily
    autoSizeCheckBox.FontSize = AdornerFonts.FontSize
    autoSizeCheckBox.Background = CType( _
        AdornerResources.FindResource(AdornerColors.RailFillBrushKey),  _
        Brush)
End Sub
// The constructor sets up the adorner control. 
public AutoSizeAdornerProvider()
{
    autoSizeCheckBox = new CheckBox();
    autoSizeCheckBox.Content = "AutoSize";
    autoSizeCheckBox.IsChecked = true;
    autoSizeCheckBox.FontFamily = AdornerFonts.FontFamily;
    autoSizeCheckBox.FontSize = AdornerFonts.FontSize;
    autoSizeCheckBox.Background = AdornerResources.FindResource(
        AdornerColors.RailFillBrushKey) as Brush;
}
