Question

See the following method:

void Paint(System.Drawing.Graphics g)
{
//How can I start record what 'g' will draw to an image object?
g.DrawLine(0,0,50,50);
g.DrawImage(...);
..
..
etc.

}

Now how can I get An Image about what ‘g’ drew?
Thanks 🙂

Answer 1

You could try…

using (Graphics g=Graphics.FromImage(inImage)) 
{ 
  g.Clear(Color.White); 
  g.DrawLine(0,0,50,50); 
} 

This will then draw the line on to the image. Just make sure the image is big enough…

Also you can draw straight on to a form by overriding the OnPaint event and getting the graphics object from the eventArgs.
