The Brushes class contains static read-only properties that return a Brush object of the color indicated by the property name. You typically do not have to explicitly dispose of the brush returned by a property in this class, unless it is used to construct a new brush. For more information about the colors represented by the brushes in this class, see Colors by Name.
The following code example demonstrates the how to use a member of the Brushes class to fill a Rectangle. This example should be used with a Windows Form. Paste this code into a form and call this method when handling the form's Paint event, passing e as PaintEventArgs.
private: void InstanceRectangleIntersection( PaintEventArgs^ e ) { Rectangle rectangle1 = Rectangle(50,50,200,100); Rectangle rectangle2 = Rectangle(70,20,100,200); e->Graphics->DrawRectangle( Pens::Black, rectangle1 ); e->Graphics->DrawRectangle( Pens::Red, rectangle2 ); if ( rectangle1.IntersectsWith( rectangle2 ) ) { rectangle1.Intersect( rectangle2 ); if ( !rectangle1.IsEmpty ) { e->Graphics->FillRectangle( Brushes::Green, rectangle1 ); } } }
