INotifyPropertyChanged.PropertyChanged

Properties

Size

Retrieve actual size of the device screen (pixels).

Property Value

Size

TransferGLPixelsCount

Stats counter of TransferGLPixels(GL) calls.

int TransferGLPixelsCount { get; }

Property Value

int

Methods

Post(Action)

Used by GLControl to emit PropertyChanged event.
This is needed in most frameworks that allow ui interactions only from the ui thread itself.
Its necessary expecially if want to access ui data from a separate Task running in parallel.
