ReserveSpaceForReflections Property

Returns/sets whether the XamCarouselPanel should reserve space for item reflections. The default is true.

Syntax

Visual Basic

'Declaration
 
Public Property ReserveSpaceForReflections As Boolean

C#

public bool ReserveSpaceForReflections {get; set;}

Remarks

If true, each CarouselPanelItem will be sized to twice the height specified by the ItemSize property to make room for the reflection.

Note: It is the responsibility of the Template within the CarouselPanelItem style to actually show the reflections in the additional space provided by this property. The default style for the CarouselPanelItem does just that.

Example

In the following example, the ReserveSpaceForReflections has been set to false to hide the reflections that are normally displayed below the carousel panel items. Since the items do not need to be as large, the ItemPathAutoPad will result in a smaller value since the items do not need to be as large and as a result the path will be large in size than when the shadows are used.
