WPF in .NET 9.0: Hyphen-based Ligatures

Read Original

This technical article details a new feature in WPF for .NET 9.0: support for hyphen-based typographic ligatures (e.g., '-->' rendering as an arrow). It explains what ligatures are, highlights the Cascadia Code font, and provides XAML code examples using TextBlock and TextBox to demonstrate the functionality before and after the .NET 9.0 update.
