saving c# object in database

If you have an image there are numerous articles showing how to add it to a database.

C# Photo Album Viewer[^]

Or are you asking how to convert the canvas to an image?

Thanks for the feedback. It helped me solve my issue. Below is what I opted to do:

Converted the control in to xaml and stored it in database. Later when required, pulled the xaml and recreated the control.

save to database

try
{
    string str = "";
    System.Windows.Controls.Canvas temp = new System.Windows.Controls.Canvas();
    temp = (System.Windows.Controls.Canvas)GraphArea.FindName("CANVASNAME");

    str = XamlWriter.Save(temp);//save the str to database



    GraphArea.Children.Remove(temp);
    GraphArea.UnregisterName(temp.Name);

}
catch (Exception exp)
{

}

End

Pull data from database and recreate the control

String strName = "";
  str = "";//pull XAML data from database
  System.Windows.Controls.Canvas canvas = System.Windows.Markup.XamlReader.Load(new System.Xml.XmlTextReader(new System.IO.StringReader(str))) as System.Windows.Controls.Canvas;
  strName = canvas.Name;
  GraphArea.Children.Add(canvas);
  GraphArea.RegisterName(strName, canvas);

End


Solution 2 is what I opted for.
