Examples

The following code example is designed for use with Windows Forms, and it requires PaintEventArgs e, which is a parameter of the Paint event handler. The code example demonstrates how to use the Data from one RegionData object to set the Data for another RegionData.

private:
   void DemonstrateRegionData2( PaintEventArgs^ e )
   {
      //Create a simple region.
      System::Drawing::Region^ region1 = gcnew System::Drawing::Region( Rectangle(10,10,100,100) );

      // Extract the region data.
      System::Drawing::Drawing2D::RegionData^ region1Data = region1->GetRegionData();
      array<Byte>^data1;
      data1 = region1Data->Data;

      // Create a second region.
      System::Drawing::Region^ region2 = gcnew System::Drawing::Region;

      // Get the region data for the second region.
      System::Drawing::Drawing2D::RegionData^ region2Data = region2->GetRegionData();

      // Set the Data property for the second region to the Data from the first region.
      region2Data->Data = data1;

      // Construct a third region using the modified RegionData of the second region.
      System::Drawing::Region^ region3 = gcnew System::Drawing::Region( region2Data );

      // Dispose of the first and second regions.
      delete region1;
      delete region2;

      // Call ExcludeClip passing in the third region.
      e->Graphics->ExcludeClip( region3 );

      // Fill in the client rectangle.
      e->Graphics->FillRectangle( Brushes::Red, this->ClientRectangle );
      delete region3;
   }

private void DemonstrateRegionData2(PaintEventArgs e)
{

    //Create a simple region.
    Region region1 = new Region(new Rectangle(10, 10, 100, 100));

    // Extract the region data.
    System.Drawing.Drawing2D.RegionData region1Data = region1.GetRegionData();
    byte[] data1;
    data1 = region1Data.Data;

    // Create a second region.
    Region region2 = new Region();

    // Get the region data for the second region.
    System.Drawing.Drawing2D.RegionData region2Data = region2.GetRegionData();

    // Set the Data property for the second region to the Data from the first region.
    region2Data.Data = data1;

    // Construct a third region using the modified RegionData of the second region.
    Region region3 = new Region(region2Data);

    // Dispose of the first and second regions.
    region1.Dispose();
    region2.Dispose();

    // Call ExcludeClip passing in the third region.
    e.Graphics.ExcludeClip(region3);

    // Fill in the client rectangle.
    e.Graphics.FillRectangle(Brushes.Red, this.ClientRectangle);

    region3.Dispose();
}

Private Sub DemonstrateRegionData2(ByVal e As PaintEventArgs)

    'Create a simple region.
    Dim region1 As New Region(New Rectangle(10, 10, 100, 100))

    ' Extract the region data.
    Dim region1Data As System.Drawing.Drawing2D.RegionData = region1.GetRegionData
    Dim data1() As Byte
    data1 = region1Data.Data

    ' Create a second region.
    Dim region2 As New Region

    ' Get the region data for the second region.
    Dim region2Data As System.Drawing.Drawing2D.RegionData = region2.GetRegionData()

    ' Set the Data property for the second region to the Data from the first region.
    region2Data.Data = data1

    ' Construct a third region using the modified RegionData of the second region.
    Dim region3 As New Region(region2Data)

    ' Dispose of the first and second regions.
    region1.Dispose()
    region2.Dispose()

    ' Call ExcludeClip passing in the third region.
    e.Graphics.ExcludeClip(region3)

    ' Fill in the client rectangle.
    e.Graphics.FillRectangle(Brushes.Red, Me.ClientRectangle)

    region3.Dispose()

End Sub

Remarks

A region is scalable because its coordinates are specified in world coordinates. On a drawing surface, however, its interior is dependent on the size and shape of the pixels representing it. An application can use regions to clip the output of drawing operations. These regions are called clipping regions. For more information on using regions for clipping, see How to: Use Clipping with a Region.

An application can also use regions in hit-testing operations, such as checking whether a point or a rectangle intersects a region. For more information on using regions for hit-testing, see How to: Use Hit Testing with a Region.

An application can fill a region by using the Graphics.FillRegion method and a Brush object.

Note

In .NET 6 and later versions, the System.Drawing.Common package, which includes this type, is only supported on Windows operating systems. Use of this type in cross-platform apps causes compile-time warnings and run-time exceptions. For more information, see System.Drawing.Common only supported on Windows.
