Graphics.FillPolygon Method (Brush, PointF[], FillMode)
Fills the interior of a polygon defined by an array of points specified by PointF structures using the specified fill mode.
Namespace: System.Drawing
Assembly: System.Drawing (in System.Drawing.dll)
Parameters
- brush
- Type: System.Drawing.Brush
Brush that determines the characteristics of the fill.
- points
- Type: System.Drawing.PointF[]
Array of PointF structures that represent the vertices of the polygon to fill.
- fillMode
- Type: System.Drawing.Drawing2D.FillMode
Member of the FillMode enumeration that determines the style of the fill.
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | brush is null. -or- points is null. |
The following code example is designed for use with Windows Forms, and it requires PaintEventArgs e, which is a parameter of the Paint event handler. The code performs the following action:
Creates a solid blue brush.
Creates an array of seven points to define a polygon.
Sets the fill mode to Winding.
Fills the polygonal area on the screen.
public void FillPolygonPointFFillMode(PaintEventArgs e) { // Create solid brush. SolidBrush blueBrush = new SolidBrush(Color.Blue); // Create points that define polygon. PointF point1 = new PointF(50.0F, 50.0F); PointF point2 = new PointF(100.0F, 25.0F); PointF point3 = new PointF(200.0F, 5.0F); PointF point4 = new PointF(250.0F, 50.0F); PointF point5 = new PointF(300.0F, 100.0F); PointF point6 = new PointF(350.0F, 200.0F); PointF point7 = new PointF(250.0F, 250.0F); PointF[] curvePoints = {point1, point2, point3, point4, point5, point6, point7}; // Define fill mode. FillMode newFillMode = FillMode.Winding; // Fill polygon to screen. e.Graphics.FillPolygon(blueBrush, curvePoints, newFillMode); }
