Drawing Shapes and Text

You can draw simple lines, rectangles, or ellipses using methods and properties that implement standard Windows drawing functions. The available drawing modes, pen styles, and fill styles make it easy to use these methods and properties with the MouseMove event for interactive drawing for LEADRasterView Control. For these methods and properties, refer to Drawing Simple Objects.

You can also draw more sophisticated three-dimensional shapes and text. However, it is not a good idea to draw these shapes and text objects in the MouseMove event, because they do not support the inverted draw mode that lets you effectively erase an old object before drawing a new one. For these methods and properties, refer to Drawing Three-Dimensional Shapes and Text.

You can draw any of the shapes or text objects in the client area of the LEADRasterView control or directly on the bitmap.
