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 performs the following actions:

• Creates an icon from a standard Windows icon file SampIcon.ico in the example folder.

• Creates a rectangle in which to draw the icon.

• Draws the icon to the screen.

The position of the rectangle locates the icon on the screen, and the drawn icon is unscaled and unclipped.

C#

private void DrawIconUnstretchedRectangle(PaintEventArgs e)
{
    // Create icon.
    Icon newIcon = new Icon("SampIcon.ico");
             
    // Create rectangle for icon.
    Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(100, 100, 200, 200);
             
    // Draw icon to screen.
    e.Graphics.DrawIconUnstretched(newIcon, rect);
}
