- Creates a solid blue brush.
- Creates a rectangle.

[Visual Basic] Public Sub FillRegionRectangle(e As PaintEventArgs) ' Create solid brush. Dim blueBrush As New SolidBrush(Color.Blue) ' Create rectangle for region. Dim fillRect As New Rectangle(100, 100, 200, 200) ' Create region for fill. Dim fillRegion As New [Region](fillRect) ' Fill region to screen. e.Graphics.FillRegion(blueBrush, fillRegion) End Sub [C#] public void FillRegionRectangle(PaintEventArgs e) { // Create solid brush. SolidBrush blueBrush = new SolidBrush(Color.Blue); // Create rectangle for region. Rectangle fillRect = new Rectangle(100, 100, 200, 200); // Create region for fill. Region fillRegion = new Region(fillRect); // Fill region to screen. e.Graphics.FillRegion(blueBrush, fillRegion); }
