Segments

Remarks

The XAML syntax for Segments is an example of an implicit collection syntax, where you can omit the PathSegmentCollection object element and the <PathFigure.Segments> property element. Instead, you generally include one or more path segment object elements (ArcSegment, BezierSegment, LineSegment, PolyBezierSegment, PolyQuadraticBezierSegment, and QuadraticBezierSegment) as child elements of a PathSegment. Explicitly including a PathSegmentCollection object element is permissible XAML syntax, and might be useful if you intend to name the collection in XAML and manipulate its contents through script later. Including the <PathFigure.Segments> property element might also be useful for markup clarity, because of the nested Figures and Segments collections found in a typical complex PathGeometry.
