C1.Framework.Drawing.Gdi.Region

Region Class

Represent the interior of a graphics shape composed of rectangles.

Implements
Namespace: C1.Framework.Drawing.Gdi
Assembly: C1.Win.C1Input.4.8.dll
Syntax
public sealed class Region : GdiObject, IDisposable, ICloneable
Remarks
A region is scalable because its coordinates are specified in world coordinates. On a drawing surface, however, its interior is dependent on the size and shape of the pixels representing it. An application can use regions to clamp the output of drawing operations. The window manager uses regions to define the drawing area of these regions are called clipping regions. An application can also use regions in hit-testing operations, such as checking whether a point or a rectangle intersects a region. An application can fill a region by using a Brush object.
cnotes

This class uses the Win32 GDI API's for handling regions. The GDI+ version Region class just seems to be buggy and too slow.

Constructors

Name Description
Region()

Initializes a new Region object.
Region(RegionData)

Initializes a new Region object from the RegionData object.
Region(Rectangle)

Initializes a new Region object from the specified Rectangle structure.
