Pen::Pen(constBrush*,REAL) method (gdipluspen.h)
Creates a Pen object that uses the attributes of a brush and a real number to set the width of this Pen object.
Syntax
void Pen(
[in] const Brush *brush,
[in] REAL width
);
Parameters
[in] brush
Type: const Brush*
Pointer to a brush to base this pen on.
[in] width
Type: REAL
Optional. Real number that specifies the width of this pen's stroke. The default value is 1.0. If this value is 0, the width in device units is always 1 pixel, except that the width will not be affected by scale-transform operations that are in effect for the Graphics object that the Pen is used for; the width will always be 1 pixel.
Return value
None
Remarks
If you pass the address of a pen to one of the draw methods of a Graphics object, the width of the pen's stroke is dependent on the unit of measure specified in the Graphics object. The default unit of measure is UnitPixel, which is an element of the Unit enumeration.
Examples
The following example creates a Brush object and then creates a Pen object based on the Brush object.
SolidBrush sBrush(Color(255,255,0,0));
Pen pen(&sBrush, 4.0f);
