Where is the WPF Timer control?
Where can I find a control which is like the C# Timer Control in WPF?
The usual WPF timer is the DispatcherTimer
, which is not a control but used in code. It basically works the same way like the WinForms timer:
System.Windows.Threading.DispatcherTimer dispatcherTimer = new System.Windows.Threading.DispatcherTimer();
dispatcherTimer.Tick += dispatcherTimer_Tick;
dispatcherTimer.Interval = new TimeSpan(0,0,1);
dispatcherTimer.Start();
private void dispatcherTimer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// code goes here
}
More on the DispatcherTimer can be found here
With Dispatcher you will need to include
using System.Windows.Threading;
Also note that if you right-click DispatcherTimer and click Resolve it should add the appropriate references.
you can also use
using System.Timers;
using System.Threading;
