ActivityDesignerPaint.DrawExpandButton Method

Definition

Draws a button that is used to expand and collapse composite designers on the activity designer surface.

C#
public static void DrawExpandButton(System.Drawing.Graphics graphics, System.Drawing.Rectangle boundingRect, bool drawExpanded, System.Workflow.ComponentModel.Design.CompositeDesignerTheme compositeDesignerTheme);

Parameters

graphics
Graphics

The Graphics on which to draw the button.

boundingRect
Rectangle

The Rectangle that defines the bounds of the button.

drawExpanded
Boolean

true to draw an expanded button; otherwise, false.

compositeDesignerTheme
CompositeDesignerTheme

The CompositeDesignerTheme associated with the activity designer used to render the button.

Exceptions

graphics or compositeDesignerTheme contains a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Examples

The following example demonstrates a way to use the ActivityDesignerPaint class to draw a custom activity on the workflow design surface. A rounded rectangle is first drawn using the DrawRoundedRectangle method. Text is then drawn using DrawText and is placed at the location of the TextRectangle of the ActivityDesigner. Additionally, the Image associated with the ActivityDesigner is drawn using the DrawImage method of the ActivityDesignerPaint class. Finally, an expand button used by a CompositeActivity is drawn using the DrawExpandButton.

C#
private bool expanded = true;
private bool useBasePaint = false;

public bool UseBasePaint
{
    get { return this.useBasePaint; }
    set { this.useBasePaint = value; }
}

public bool Expanded
{
    get { return this.expanded; }
    set { this.expanded = value; }
}

protected override void OnPaint(ActivityDesignerPaintEventArgs e)
{
    if (this.UseBasePaint)
    {
        base.OnPaint(e);
        return;
    }

    DrawCustomActivity(e);
}

private void DrawCustomActivity(ActivityDesignerPaintEventArgs e)
{
    Graphics graphics = e.Graphics;

    CompositeDesignerTheme compositeDesignerTheme = (CompositeDesignerTheme)e.DesignerTheme;

    ActivityDesignerPaint.DrawRoundedRectangle(graphics, compositeDesignerTheme.BorderPen, this.Bounds, compositeDesignerTheme.BorderWidth);

    string text = this.Text;
    Rectangle textRectangle = this.TextRectangle;
    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(text) && !textRectangle.IsEmpty)
    {
        ActivityDesignerPaint.DrawText(graphics, compositeDesignerTheme.Font, text, textRectangle, StringAlignment.Center, e.AmbientTheme.TextQuality, compositeDesignerTheme.ForegroundBrush);
    }

    System.Drawing.Image image = this.Image;
    Rectangle imageRectangle = this.ImageRectangle;
    if (image != null && !imageRectangle.IsEmpty)
    {
        ActivityDesignerPaint.DrawImage(graphics, image, imageRectangle, DesignerContentAlignment.Fill);
    }

    ActivityDesignerPaint.DrawExpandButton(graphics,
        new Rectangle(this.Location.X, this.Location.Y, 10, 10),
        this.Expanded,
        compositeDesignerTheme);
}
