Examples

The following example shows a custom ActivityDesigner that delegates the painting responsibility to the base class or draws itself based on a Boolean value. If useBasePaint is false, the custom activity will draw itself using the various methods of the ActivityDesignerPaint class.

private bool expanded = true;
private bool useBasePaint = false;

public bool UseBasePaint
{
    get { return this.useBasePaint; }
    set { this.useBasePaint = value; }
}

public bool Expanded
{
    get { return this.expanded; }
    set { this.expanded = value; }
}

protected override void OnPaint(ActivityDesignerPaintEventArgs e)
{
    if (this.UseBasePaint)
    {
        base.OnPaint(e);
        return;
    }

    DrawCustomActivity(e);
}

private void DrawCustomActivity(ActivityDesignerPaintEventArgs e)
{
    Graphics graphics = e.Graphics;

    CompositeDesignerTheme compositeDesignerTheme = (CompositeDesignerTheme)e.DesignerTheme;

    ActivityDesignerPaint.DrawRoundedRectangle(graphics, compositeDesignerTheme.BorderPen, this.Bounds, compositeDesignerTheme.BorderWidth);

    string text = this.Text;
    Rectangle textRectangle = this.TextRectangle;
    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(text) && !textRectangle.IsEmpty)
    {
        ActivityDesignerPaint.DrawText(graphics, compositeDesignerTheme.Font, text, textRectangle, StringAlignment.Center, e.AmbientTheme.TextQuality, compositeDesignerTheme.ForegroundBrush);
    }

    System.Drawing.Image image = this.Image;
    Rectangle imageRectangle = this.ImageRectangle;
    if (image != null && !imageRectangle.IsEmpty)
    {
        ActivityDesignerPaint.DrawImage(graphics, image, imageRectangle, DesignerContentAlignment.Fill);
    }

    ActivityDesignerPaint.DrawExpandButton(graphics,
        new Rectangle(this.Location.X, this.Location.Y, 10, 10),
        this.Expanded,
        compositeDesignerTheme);
}

    Dim text As String = Me.Text
    Dim TextRectangle As Rectangle = Me.TextRectangle
    If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(text) And Not TextRectangle.IsEmpty Then
        ActivityDesignerPaint.DrawText(graphics, compositeDesignerTheme.Font, text, TextRectangle, StringAlignment.Center, e.AmbientTheme.TextQuality, compositeDesignerTheme.ForegroundBrush)
    End If
