Graphics::ExcludeClip Method (Rectangle)
Assembly: System.Drawing (in System.Drawing.dll)
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 actions:
Creates a 100 pixel by 100 pixel rectangle whose upper-left corner is at the coordinate (100, 100).
Creates a region defined by the rectangle.
Sets the clipping region to exclude the rectangular region.
Fills a 300 pixel by 300 pixel rectangle whose upper-left corner is at the coordinate (0, 0) with a solid blue brush.
The result is a blue rectangle with a square region toward its lower-right corner missing.
public: void ExcludeClipRectangle( PaintEventArgs^ e ) { // Create rectangle for exclusion. Rectangle excludeRect = Rectangle(100,100,200,200); // Set clipping region to exclude rectangle. e->Graphics->ExcludeClip( excludeRect ); // Fill large rectangle to show clipping region. e->Graphics->FillRectangle( gcnew SolidBrush( Color::Blue ), 0, 0, 300, 300 ); }
