Combobulate

A XAML controls library for UWP and WinUI 3 / Windows App SDK that renders 3D .obj files made of quads using the Windows Composition visual layer — no D3D, no SwapChainPanel, no shaders.

combobulate (humorous) — to compose (oneself); to compose, organize, design, or arrange; to reverse the effect of discombobulation. (Wiktionary)

Each quad becomes a SpriteVisual placed in 3D by a perspective TransformMatrix, with back-face culling and a topology-aware painter's algorithm to get the draw order right without a depth buffer.

Packages

NuGet: Combobulate

Targets

  • UWP — uap10.0.19041
  • WinUI 3 / Windows App SDK — net10.0-windows10.0.19041.0

Getting Started

  1. Add the Combobulate NuGet package to your UWP or WinUI 3 app.

  2. Drop a .obj file into your app (e.g. Assets/book.obj, marked as Content so it ships with the package).

  3. Place a Combobulate control in your XAML and point Source at the file:

    <Page xmlns:c="using:Combobulate">
    <c:Combobulate Source="ms-appx:///Assets/book.obj"
                   ModelScale="200"
                   RotationX="-30"
                   RotationY="40" />
</Page>

That's it — no code-behind required. The control parses the .obj on demand, caches it process-wide, and auto-loads any mtllib referenced by the file (textures resolved relative to the .obj).

For everything else — loading from arbitrary paths or streams, supplying custom textures per face, live-updating pixels, the full property reference, the supported .obj / .mtl subset, and the caching model — see docs/usage.md.
