create customize control

[Naveed727]

How can i create an customize label with surrounded rectangle.

You can inherit a control from System.Windows.Forms.Label and override its OnPaint event:

// Constructor
public BorderLabel() {
InitializeComponent();
this.Paint += new System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventHandler(BorderLabel_Paint);
}

// Event
void BorderLabel_Paint(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs e) {
Brush brush = new SolidBrush(Color.Red);
Pen pen = new Pen(brush);
Rectangle rect = e.ClipRectangle;

// this is needed to see the right and bottom edges
rect.Inflate(-1, -1);

e.Graphics.DrawRectangle(pen, rect);
}
