Gets or sets the image source used for the reflection. When specified, the control will use the given image source for the reflection instead of capturing the image from its content.

Remarks

By default, ContentReflector generates the reflection image based on the specified content. You can use any data types as the content to be reflected by the ContentReflector. However, if you’re using an Image as its content, it is recommended to use ReflectionSource to improve the performance. By providing ReflectionSource, the control will use the provided image instead of generating the reflection image.

If you are using non-image content type and having performance issue, you may want to set the AutoRefresh property to false. When set to true, this property enables ContentReflector to re-generate the reflection image whenever the content layout is updated, for instance, due to changes in the content such as text input, resizing, and visual states change.

The following example shows how to use ReflectionSource to improve the performance by skipping the reflection process.

    </Grid>
