[nandhumca]

Hi, I want to create Button with below code. In that code based the Content value, the icon is getting changed. I want to see all the icons linked for A-Z, a-z, 0-9 for best suitable icon. Where can get that information ? Kindly guide.

new System.Windows.Controls.Button { Content = "X", Style = btnStyle, };

Hello nandhumca,

Thank you for the post.

The WPF Button and its Content don't normally have any pre defined values. I see that you used a Style on the button and also mentioned icons being changed, are you using some kind of icon font with the button? Passing X as the content would normally be a string with the letter X.

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Yes, I am using wingdings as font. What are other fonts like wingdings which I can use for icon in NT?

Some other place I have seen that below code is being used for custom icon drawings. Where can I find all the reference of existing Geometry.Parse values ?

System.Windows.Media.Geometry.Parse("M 0 15 L 15 1 L 16 1 L 1 15 Z");

Hello nandhumca,

Thank you for providing that details.

I am not sure what other fonts have icons but you can try any Windows font that you have installed to check the result on your end. You can search online for windows icon fonts for some ideas of what may be available.

If you wanted to know what icons are in the wingdings font you can search online for "wingings code example", there are many sites that have the code and pictures one being wikipedia.

The code you pasted is known as geometry string, you generally find those in SVG files. You can use external software like inkscape which works with SVG files to also export xaml compliant code which would contain geometry like you pasted. That is generally used with drawing objects which have a menu icon.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
