Custom Shapes XAML

[Disk4mat]

Is there way to edit the xaml files for custom shapes to specify Fill=Solid and color=White? Ive read these properties exist on MS site. The following code does not seem to work in PDN as far as overriding the default Primary color, brush width, fill style.

 

Does PDN not support it or is my structure incorrect?

 

<Path Stroke="White" StrokeThickness="2" Fill="#FFFFFF">
  <Path.Data>
    <GeometryGroup FillRule="Nonzero">
<PathGeometry>
			<PathFigure IsClosed="False" IsFilled="True" StartPoint="394.52,8.41">
				<BezierSegment Point1="352.03,13.68" Point2="299,24.85" Point3="246.28,39.73" />
				<LineSegment Point="187.97,55.86" />
				<LineSegment Point="161.92,112.3" />
				<BezierSegment Point1="131.53,177.74" Point2="111.68,232.01" Point3="116.34,236.35" />
				<BezierSegment Point1="117.89,238.22" Point2="147.66,228.6" Point3="182.08,215.27" />
				<BezierSegment Point1="216.82,201.93" Point2="268.3,183.63" Point3="296.83,174.64" />
				<LineSegment Point="348.62,158.51" />
				<LineSegment Point="384.28,86.56" />
				<BezierSegment Point1="420.88,13.37" Point2="421.81,5" Point3="394.52,8.41" />
			</PathFigure>
			<PathFigure IsClosed="False" IsFilled="True" StartPoint="273.57,226.74">
				<BezierSegment Point1="148.59,271.09" Point2="112.3,287.53" Point3="104.86,302.41" />
				<BezierSegment Point1="96.8,319.16" Point2="78.19,437.01" Point3="78.19,472.05" />
				<LineSegment Point="78.19,495" />
				<LineSegment Point="169.68,490.66" />
				<BezierSegment Point1="277.91,485.39" Point2="263.65,493.45" Point3="274.19,430.8" />
				<BezierSegment Point1="285.97,361.65" Point2="305.82,287.84" Point3="323.81,246.9" />
				<BezierSegment Point1="331.87,228.6" Point2="338.7,212.47" Point3="338.7,211.23" />
				<BezierSegment Point1="338.7,205.65" Point2="320.4,210.3" Point3="273.57,226.74" />
			</PathFigure>
		</PathGeometry>
    </GeometryGroup>
  </Path.Data>
</Path>

No. You cannot specify the color or stroke details in a custom shape. What you are trying to do is to instantiate a System.Windows.Shapes.Path object. This simply does not exist in the context of Paint.NET custom shapes. You cannot use a different root object type in your XAML, it must be SimpleGeometryShape, which does not allow you to set stroke or fill information -- those are solely for the user to configure in the toolbar.

Thank you very much for explaining that. Makes perfect sense. 👍
