Remarks
The PictureEdit control can display the Take Image from Camera menu item that allows an end-user to take a snapshot from a webcam. See the figure below.
The ShowCameraMenuItem property specifies whether this menu item is visible. The following modes are provided:
- Auto — the menu item is automatically visible if a webcam is plugged in; otherwise, the menu item is hidden;
- Never — the default mode. The menu item is never visible;
- Always — the menu item is always visible.
With a click on the menu item, an end-user invokes the Take Picture dialog. When a snapshot is taken, it is displayed in the PictureEdit control. To learn more about the Take Picture dialog, see the corresponding section in the CameraControl topic.
