XamlTransform3DParallax

Transform3D parallax sample

This sample shows how to implement parallax effects using the new Transform3D API.

Specifically, this sample shows how to:

• Create a parallax background image: This sample shows how to add a parallax background to your scrolling experience, and control the magnitude of the parallax effect.
• Add parallax to a Hub control: By deriving from the Hub class, we can add a parallax background effect like the one in the Windows 8.1 Hub control. See generic.xaml and the ParallaxBackgroundHub class for the implementation of this effect.

Note The Windows universal samples require Visual Studio 2015 to build and Windows 10 to execute.

To obtain information about Windows 10, go to Windows 10
