You can use the VisualStyleElement returned by the Active property to create a VisualStyleRenderer.
The following code example demonstrates how to create a VisualStyleRenderer with the VisualStyleElement returned by the Active property. To run this example, paste it into a Windows Form. Handle the form’s Paint event and call the DrawVisualStyleElementWindowMaxCaption1 method from the Paint event-handling method, passing e as PaintEventArgs.
public void DrawVisualStyleElementWindowMaxCaption1(PaintEventArgs e) { if (VisualStyleRenderer.IsElementDefined( VisualStyleElement.Window.MaxCaption.Active)) { VisualStyleRenderer renderer = new VisualStyleRenderer(VisualStyleElement.Window.MaxCaption.Active); Rectangle rectangle1 = new Rectangle(10, 50, 50, 50); renderer.DrawBackground(e.Graphics, rectangle1); e.Graphics.DrawString("VisualStyleElement.Window.MaxCaption.Active", this.Font, Brushes.Black, new Point(10, 10)); } else e.Graphics.DrawString("This element is not defined in the current visual style.", this.Font, Brushes.Black, new Point(10, 10)); }
