Hi,

I am using a Viewport3D control in WPF to diaplay a 3D image in a C# Winform application. I also need to diaplay a 2d Bitmap image behind the scene. My question is - Can I host a 2D bitmap image in a viewport3D control in WPF. Is there any way this can be achieved?

Please help.

Regards,
Anshu Dutta

As far as I know there is no general way to add a 2D background to Viewport3D. There is a simple workaround though.

You can use an ordinary Image control to display the background and then place the Viewport3D control right over the image. The underlying bitmap will be visible behind all the models in the scene.

Thanks! Do you have a code snippet or an example that I can use?

Just create an Image control and a Viewport3D control and put these 2 on the same position.

Something like:

<Image ... />
<Viewport3D ... />

And make sure the Viewport3D control is placed over the Image control. There is nothing more to explain here...
