Brush Class
Defines objects used to fill the interiors of graphical shapes such as rectangles, ellipses, pies, polygons, and paths.
Assembly: System.Drawing (in System.Drawing.dll)
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Brush() | Initializes a new instance of the Brush class. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Clone() | When overridden in a derived class, creates an exact copy of this Brush. |
![]() | CreateObjRef(Type) | Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object.(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |
![]() | Dispose() | Releases all resources used by this Brush object. |
![]() | Dispose(Boolean) | Releases the unmanaged resources used by the Brush and optionally releases the managed resources. |
![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.(Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize() | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.(Overrides Object.Finalize().) |
![]() | GetHashCode() | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetLifetimeService() | Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance.(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |
![]() | GetType() | |
![]() | InitializeLifetimeService() | Obtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance.(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone() | |
![]() | MemberwiseClone(Boolean) | Creates a shallow copy of the current MarshalByRefObject object.(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |
![]() | SetNativeBrush(IntPtr) | In a derived class, sets a reference to a GDI+ brush object. |
![]() | ToString() | Returns a string that represents the current object.(Inherited from Object.) |
This is an abstract base class and cannot be instantiated. To create a brush object, use classes derived from Brush, such as SolidBrush, TextureBrush, and LinearGradientBrush.
Notes to Inheritors:
When you inherit from the Brush class, you must override the Clone method.
