In a project I've loaded some images. However, in particular, Ellipses look quite ugly. As though an edge of ellipse shape is greatly indented. I know this is common issue for ellipsoid shapes.
So is there a way to improve edges?

If its an Image (jpg, png, bmp etc) the quality of the Image is retained in WPF (unless you are scaling up/down). So check if the actual image is crappy. – Prateek Shrivastava Oct 18 '18 at 07:14

That's the point, in a pic viewer they look not so crappy as in WPF app! – DeputyOfCopyPaster Oct 18 '18 at 07:24

1It would be awesome if you could provide a [mcve] including at least 3 sample images. – mjwills Oct 18 '18 at 07:25

A couple of suggestions
Check the DPI of your image files. The default is often 72, whereas WPF works best with DPI = 96, otherwise it will try to scale the image.
Set the RenderOptions.BitmapScalingMode of your image control - see this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/2734431/967885.
If you want really smooth curves though, ditch the bitmaps and use a WPF Geometry (e.g. Path) instead.

The pics were created with a standard DPI =96. OK, thanks for an advice. I'll try to follow. About "paths" you are right, "paths" images look much better. I knew it. – DeputyOfCopyPaster Oct 18 '18 at 07:52
