   {
      button1 = gcnew Button;
      button2 = gcnew Button;
      this->button2->Location = Point(0,button1->Height + 10);
      this->Click += gcnew EventHandler( this, &Form1::button2_Click );
      this->Controls->Add( this->button1 );
      this->Controls->Add( this->button2 );
   }


private:

   void button2_Click( Object^ /*sender*/, System::EventArgs^ /*e*/ )
   {
      
      // Draws a flat button on button1.
      ControlPaint::DrawButton( System::Drawing::Graphics::FromHwnd( button1->Handle ), 0, 0, button1->Width, button1->Height, ButtonState::Flat );
   }

};

Remarks

The methods contained in the ControlPaint class enable you to draw your own controls or elements of controls. You can control the drawing of your own controls if the UserPaint bit is set to true for the control. You can get or set the style bits by calling the GetStyle or SetStyle methods. You can set multiple style bits for any control. The ControlStyles enumeration members can be combined with bitwise operations.

Properties

ContrastControlDark
