hi Bitmap workSpaceBitmap = new Bitmap(tabctrlMain.SelectedTab.Width, tabctrlMain.SelectedTab.Height); tabctrlMain.SelectedTab.DrawToBitmap(workSpaceBitmap, tabctrlMain.SelectedTab.Bounds); workSpaceBitmap.Save("c:\\image.jpeg", ImageFormat.Jpeg); i write this code and thanx very much for ur help(DrawToBitmap u told me about it) thanx alot but one question if there is a scroll bar is this code will draw disappeared parts of screen to image or not Generator

Have a look at this: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms951285.aspx[^] #region signature my articles #endregion

use System.Threading.ThreadStart delegate instead of Thread

glad to help :)

Try NDoc or SandCastle. Here are some of my articles. Hope this helps! Joseph Guadagno http://www.josephguadagno.net

hi , my problem is that i donot know how to use XOR mode in drawing line Generator

hi all, first thanx for ur help second a friend to me solve our problem of double buffered as follows class customTabPage : TabPage { customTabPage():base() { this.DoubleBuffered = true; } } Generator

public void tab_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e) { TabPage tab = (TabPage)sender; BufferedGraphicsContext context; BufferedGraphics buffer; // context = BufferedGraphicsManager.Current; /// Dedicated context /// used when highly animated graphics context = new BufferedGraphicsContext(); Graphics grfx = tab.CreateGraphics(); buffer = context.Allocate(grfx, tab.ClientRectangle); drawSurfaceToBuffer(buffer.Graphics); buffer.Render(grfx); buffer.Dispose(); grfx.Dispose(); } public void drawSurfaceToBuffer(Graphics bufferGrfx) { /// some processing that used the buffer grfxs } this code i understand it from MSDN and write it to reduce Graphics Flicker but it does not make any thing at all also it make my background of tabpage black and the original is white is there any suggestions please Generator

hi all i think that i found a method that i can use using drawing in memory as bitmap and then draw my background in the bitmap and draw bitmap again to the screen can any one tell me how to begin search how to use this technique thanx Generator Generator

hi, i mean when i write Thread myThread = new Thread(ThreadMethod); it said [Error 1 A field initializer cannot reference the nonstatic field, method, or property 'Interface.mainScreen.threadProcedure()' C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Well Formed Interface_thread\Interface\mainScreen.cs 38 49 Interface ] and i am actually want to know the reason that when i used abort it makes exception and i want to ask if i can make the lockobject my thread name thanx -- modified at 12:02 Wednesday 11th April, 2007 Generator -- modified at 14:19 Wednesday 11th April, 2007

I can't answer that, graphics isn't an area I know much about. "110%" - it's the new 70%

Hi mav, thanx for ur efforts but i think i made actually not good solution but i think it work at this time this is the code(please tell me if any notes) Graphics grfx = this.CreateGraphics(); Pen pen = new Pen(mainScreen.DefaultBackColor); if (counter == 0) { lastPntOfLine = e.Location; counter++; } else grfx.DrawLine(pen, mLineBeginPnt, lastPntOfLine); mLineEndPnt = e.Location; grfx.DrawLine(Pens.Black, mLineBeginPnt, mLineEndPnt); lastPntOfLine = e.Location; grfx.Dispose(); pen.Dispose(); Invalidate(); i felt very stubid to write that but this is my thinking until now Generator

Can't be done. Instead, create a delegate between the classes, so the class that forced invalidation either calls a method that calls invalidate in the second class, or passes it's graphics object to the second class for painting. You can't make the event args in the second class contain the graphics object of the first class.

The most simple method is to XOR the color. Off the top of my head I do not know the method to XOR a color. Also you can draw a border around the line. Or you can change the pen to be dashed or some other non-solid pen type. Pen pen = new Pen(new System.Drawing.Drawing2D.HatchBrush(System.Drawing.Drawing2D.HatchStyle.Cross, Color.Black), 2f); File Not Found

You want lines to only be drawn between components, or just anywhere that people feel like it ? Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++ Metal Musings - Rex and my new metal blog
