I want the correct values for ViewboxMinSize and ViewboxLimits if I want to limit the zoom in and out values to 10% and 500%?
I was not able to figure that out.

Can anybody give me a solution or a hint on how those Viewbox values work together? The examples provided with the Control did not help me a lot.

Hope to hear from you ;-)

Any information on that issue?

This can be done with subscribing to PreviewViewboxChanged event on ZoomPanel and prevent or adjust viewbox changes.

The following method can be used for your case:

private void ZoomPanel1_PreviewViewboxChanged(object sender, Ab2d.Controls.ViewboxChangedRoutedEventArgs e)
{
double zoomFactor = ZoomPanel1.GetZoomFactor(e.NewViewboxValue);

// Limit the zoom in and out values to 10% and 500%
// If outside this limits we will mark the change as handled and this will prevent the change in ZoomPanel
if (zoomFactor < 0.1 || zoomFactor > 5)
{
// First check if we have already limited the zoom in the previous zoom event.
// In this case just prevent on changes done while zooming (this will not prevent only move events)
// Without this the user would still be able to move the content of ZoomPanel when zooming (it looks wrong)
if ((zoomFactor > 5 && e.OldViewboxValue.Width == 0.2) ||
(zoomFactor < 0.1 && e.OldViewboxValue.Width == 10))
{
e.Handled = true; // Prevent any change
}
else
{
// Here we will adjust the NewViewboxValue.Width and NewViewboxValue.Height
// To preserve the location we need to store the new center
double centerX = e.NewViewboxValue.X + e.NewViewboxValue.Width/2;
double centerY = e.NewViewboxValue.Y + e.NewViewboxValue.Height/2;

double newWidth, newHeight;

if (zoomFactor < 0.1)
{
newWidth = 10; // 10% = 10 times the whole content is shown
newHeight = 10;
}
else
{
newWidth = 0.2; // 500% - 1 / 5 of the whole content is shown
newHeight = 0.2;
}

e.NewViewboxValue = new Rect(centerX - newWidth/2, centerY - newHeight/2, newWidth, newHeight);
}
}
}

Hi Andrej,

Great, thanks, that was the solution!
I have not been aware of the PreviewViewboxChanged event as I looked for something like ZoomValueChanged.

Best regards,
