public:
System::Drawing::KnownColor ToKnownColor();public System.Drawing.KnownColor ToKnownColor ();member this.ToKnownColor : unit -> System.Drawing.KnownColorPublic Function ToKnownColor () As KnownColorReturns
An element of the KnownColor enumeration, if the Color is created from a predefined color by using either the FromName(String) method or the FromKnownColor(KnownColor) method; otherwise, 0.
Remarks
A predefined color is also called a known color and is represented by an element of the KnownColor enumeration. When the ToKnownColor method is applied to a Color structure that is created by using the FromArgb method, ToKnownColor returns 0, even if the ARGB value matches the ARGB value of a predefined color. ToKnownColor also returns 0 when it is applied to a Color structure that is created by using the FromName method with a string name that is not valid.
