How to create curved edges of the textbox in winform c#
Sample TextBox:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/edit/RoundedCornerTextbox/RoundedTextbox.png
This code VB
Protected Overrides Function ProcessCmdKey(ByRef msg _
As System.Windows.Forms.Message, _
ByVal keyData As System.Windows.Forms.Keys) As Boolean
If msg.WParam.ToInt32() = CInt(Keys.Enter) Then
SendKeys.Send("{Tab}")
Return True
ElseIf msg.WParam.ToInt32() = CInt(Keys.Decimal) Then
SendKeys.Send(",")
Return True
End If
End Function
The next method is the actual overriding of the WM_Paint event, in which the redrawing is done. It makes uses of the API functions GetWindowDC and ReleaseDC to get the actual graphics of the control, including the non-client area.
Protected Overrides Sub WndProc(ByRef m As _
System.Windows.Forms.Message) Handles MyBase.WndProc(m)
Select Case m.Msg
Case &HF 'WM_PAINT
Dim rect As New Rectangle(0, 0, MyBase.Width, MyBase.Height)
Dim hDC As IntPtr = GetWindowDC(Me.Handle)
Dim g As Graphics = Graphics.FromHdc(hDC)
If Me.Enabled Then
g.Clear(Color.White)
Else
g.Clear(Color.FromName("control"))
End If
DrawBorder(g)
DrawText(g)
ReleaseDC(Me.Handle, hDC)
g.Dispose()
Case &H7, &H8, &H200, &H2A3
'CMB_DROPDOWN, CMB_CLOSEUP, WM_SETFOCUS,
'WM_KILLFOCUS, WM_MOUSEMOVE, 'WM_MOUSELEAVE
UpdateState()
End Select
End Sub
To get the rounded corners, the method shown below is used.
Private Sub TekenRondeRechthoek(ByVal g As Graphics, _
ByVal pen As Pen, ByVal rectangle As Rectangle, _
ByVal radius As Single)
Dim size As Single = (radius * 2.0!)
Dim gp As GraphicsPath = New GraphicsPath
gp.AddArc(rectangle.X, rectangle.Y, size, size, 180, 90)
gp.AddArc((rectangle.X + (rectangle.Width - size)), _
rectangle.Y, size, size, 270, 90)
gp.AddArc((rectangle.X + (rectangle.Width - size)), _
(rectangle.Y + (rectangle.Height - size)), _
size, size, 0, 90)
gp.AddArc(rectangle.X, (rectangle.Y + _
(rectangle.Height - size)), size, size, 90, 90)
gp.CloseFigure()
g.DrawPath(pen, gp)
gp.Dispose()
End Sub
