system.graphics

[murrayja]

Can anyone direct me to some documentation, with examples, of the namespace "system.graphics"? I am converting a visual basic app that uses raster-ops and want to use as much managed code as possible.

As far as I know, there's no System.Graphics, but rather System.Drawing.Graphics.

And for its documentation:

You will want to google GDI+ Tutorial and see what comes up. Once you become familiar with GDI+ you can do a lot of custom drawing.

Just a note - most tutorials will have you create new pens and brushes every time you draw. This is a bad thing. Use system pens and brushes instead.

Example:

e.Graphics.DrawLine(Pens.Black, 0,0,100,100); //will use the 1pixel system pen that is black
