XAML Values
- oneOrMorePathFigures
One or more PathFigure object elements. Object elements defined here become members of the PathFigureCollection collection when code accesses the Figures property at run time.
The PathGeometry type exposes the following members.

Bounds | Gets a Rect that specifies the axis-aligned bounding box of the Geometry. (Inherited from Geometry.) |
|
Dispatcher | Gets the Dispatcher this object is associated with. (Inherited from DependencyObject.) |
|
Figures | Gets or sets the collection of PathFigure objects that describe the contents of a path. |
|
FillRule | Gets or sets a value that determines how the intersecting areas contained in the PathGeometry are combined. |
|
Transform | Gets or sets the Transform object applied to a Geometry. (Inherited from Geometry.) |

Methods
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
CheckAccess | Determines whether the calling thread has access to this object. (Inherited from DependencyObject.) |
|
ClearValue | Clears the local value of a dependency property. (Inherited from DependencyObject.) |
|
Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
.gif "Protected method") |
Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
GetAnimationBaseValue | Returns any base value established for a Windows Phone dependency property, which would apply in cases where an animation is not active. (Inherited from DependencyObject.) |
|
GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
GetValue | Returns the current effective value of a dependency property from a DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject.) |
|
MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
|
ReadLocalValue | Returns the local value of a dependency property, if a local value is set. (Inherited from DependencyObject.) |
|
SetValue | Sets the local value of a dependency property on a DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject.) |
|
ToString | Returns a string representation of this PathGeometry. (Overrides Object..::.ToString()()().) |

Remarks
Each PathGeometry object defines a collection of PathFigure objects. Each of the PathFigure objects is composed of one or more PathSegment objects, such as ArcSegment and LineSegment, which actually define their shape.
The filled area of the PathGeometry is defined by taking all of the contained PathFigure objects that have their IsFilled property set to true and applying the FillRule to determine the enclosed area.
