Windows creaters Update new Features-pip mode and window Gaussian blur

In Windows Creaters Update, you can set the Gaussian blur to the window, just a few lines of code!

    <GridLoaded= "grid_loaded">        <Gridx:name= "mg"></Grid>        <GridBackground= "Blue"Opacity= "0.4"x:name= "Rootgrid" ></Grid>        <!--your uielements -    </Grid>

Windows.UI.Composition.Compositor _compositor;        Windows.UI.Composition.SpriteVisual _hostsprite;  PublicMainPage () { This.            InitializeComponent (); _compositor= Windows.UI.Xaml.Hosting.ElementCompositionPreview.GetElementVisual ( This).        compositor; }        Private voidGrid_loaded (Objectsender, RoutedEventArgs e) {_hostsprite=_compositor.            Createspritevisual (); _hostsprite.size=NewSystem.Numerics.Vector2 ((float) Rootgrid.actualwidth, (float) rootgrid.actualheight);            Elementcompositionpreview.setelementchildvisual (Mg, _hostsprite); _hostsprite.brush=_compositor.        Createhostbackdropbrush (); }

Effect

The color of the grid in XAML can be changed, and it's OK to delete it. That is to achieve a specific color blur to the Start menu.

However, this method is not valid in the newly added PIP mode

about how to implement a PIP is actually very simple.

Detect if PIP is supported

Applicationview.getforcurrentview (). Isviewmodesupported (Applicationviewmode.compactoverlay)

into the picture

BOOL await Applicationview.getforcurrentview (). Tryenterviewmodeasync (Applicationviewmode.compactoverlay);

    Viewmodepreferences compactoptions = viewmodepreferences.createdefault (applicationviewmode.compactoverlay);     New Windows.Foundation.Size;//You want the window size     boolawait Applicationview.getforcurrentview (). Tryenterviewmodeasync (Applicationviewmode.default, compactoptions);

Exit picture-in-pictures

BOOL await Applicationview.getforcurrentview (). Tryenterviewmodeasync (Applicationviewmode.default);

You can also combine the multi-window capabilities of the UWP

awaitCoreapplication.createnewview (). Dispatcher.runasync (Coredispatcherpriority.normal, () =    {        varframe =NewFrame (); Compactviewid=Applicationview.getforcurrentview ().        Id; Frame. Navigate (typeof(Secondarycompactviewpage)); Window.Current.Content=frame;        Window.Current.Activate (); Applicationview.getforcurrentview (). Title="picture in the picture window";    }); BOOLViewshown =awaitApplicationviewswitcher.tryshowasviewmodeasync (Compactviewid, Applicationviewmode.compactoverlay);

I have also made a complete example that can be downloaded here Https://git.oschina.net/PixeezPlus/Sharp2DDemo/tree/master/GaussianBlurWindow

It is also important to note that this code is only valid for the Creaters update version of the PC
