Remarks

The ViewService class maps visuals to underlying model items. The ModelService and ViewService classes are required for the designer to function. The DesignerView class, which is responsible for processing user input and routing it to commands, requires both of these services to map user input back to the model.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
