WindowScale Property (XamMap)

Gets or sets the window scale used to render the map. In combination with the window center, the window scale fully defines the part of the map visible to the user.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public Property WindowScale As Double

C#

public double WindowScale {get; set;}

Remarks

Window scale is specified as a pure number relative to the size of the world and the size of the physical viewport; a window scale of one will fit the world to the viewport such that the either world's width or height precisely fits the viewport, depending upon which dimension produces the loosest fit.

As far as possible, resizing the viewport at a constant WindowScale approximately maintains the visible part of the window.
