How to create an InkCanvas Dynamically

The InkCanvas class represents an InkCanvas in WPF. The code snippet in Listing 1 creates an InkCanvas at run-time and sets its properties.

private void CreateInkCanvasDynamically()

{

    InkCanvas inkboard = new InkCanvas();

    inkboard.Name = "InkBoard";

    inkboard.Width = 300;

    inkboard.Height = 200;

    inkboard.Background = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.LightGray);

    inkboard.VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Top;

    inkboard.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left;

    inkboard.EditingMode = InkCanvasEditingMode.Ink;

    inkboard.EditingModeInverted = InkCanvasEditingMode.GestureOnly;

    LayoutRoot.Children.Add(inkboard);

}
