RegionData Class
Encapsulates the data that makes up a Region object. This class cannot be inherited.
Assembly: System.Drawing (in System.Drawing.dll)
The following 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 rectangle and draw its to the screen in black.
Creates a region using the rectangle.
Gets the RegionData.
Draws the region data (an array of bytes) to the screen, by using the DisplayRegionData helper function.
Public Sub GetRegionDataExample(ByVal e As PaintEventArgs) ' Create the first rectangle and draw it to the screen in black. Dim regionRect As New Rectangle(20, 20, 100, 100) e.Graphics.DrawRectangle(Pens.Black, regionRect) ' Create a region using the first rectangle. Dim myRegion As New [Region](regionRect) ' Get the RegionData for this region. Dim myRegionData As RegionData = myRegion.GetRegionData() Dim myRegionDataLength As Integer = myRegionData.Data.Length DisplayRegionData(e, myRegionDataLength, myRegionData) End Sub ' Helper Function for GetRegionData. Public Sub DisplayRegionData(ByVal e As PaintEventArgs, ByVal len As Integer, _ ByVal dat As RegionData) ' Display the result. Dim i As Integer Dim x As Single = 20 Dim y As Single = 140 Dim myFont As New Font("Arial", 8) Dim myBrush As New SolidBrush(Color.Black) e.Graphics.DrawString("myRegionData = ", myFont, myBrush, _ New PointF(x, y)) y = 160 For i = 0 To len - 1 If x > 300 Then y += 20 x = 20 End If e.Graphics.DrawString(dat.Data(i).ToString(), myFont, _ myBrush, New PointF(x, y)) x += 30 Next i End Sub
