protected:
virtual void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs^ e) override
{
Control::OnPaint(e);
if (!ComboBoxRenderer::IsSupported)
{
this->Parent->Text = "Visual Styles Disabled";
return;
}
this->Parent->Text = "CustomComboBox Enabled";
// Always draw the main text box and drop down arrow in their
// current states
ComboBoxRenderer::DrawTextBox(e->Graphics, topTextBoxRectangle,
this->Text, this->Font, textBoxState);
ComboBoxRenderer::DrawDropDownButton(e->Graphics, arrowRectangle,
arrowState);
// Only draw the bottom text box if the arrow has been clicked
if (isActivated)
{
ComboBoxRenderer::DrawTextBox(e->Graphics,
bottomTextBoxRectangle, bottomText, this->Font,
textBoxState);
}
}
// Draw the combo box in the current state.
protected override void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e)
{
base.OnPaint(e);
if (!ComboBoxRenderer.IsSupported)
{
this.Parent.Text = "Visual Styles Disabled";
return;
}
this.Parent.Text = "CustomComboBox Enabled";
// Always draw the main text box and drop down arrow in their
// current states
ComboBoxRenderer.DrawTextBox(e.Graphics, topTextBoxRectangle,
this.Text, this.Font, textBoxState);
ComboBoxRenderer.DrawDropDownButton(e.Graphics, arrowRectangle,
arrowState);
// Only draw the bottom text box if the arrow has been clicked
if (isActivated)
{
ComboBoxRenderer.DrawTextBox(e.Graphics,
bottomTextBoxRectangle, bottomText, this.Font,
textBoxState);
}
}
' Draw the combo box in the current state.
Protected Overrides Sub OnPaint(ByVal e As PaintEventArgs)
MyBase.OnPaint(e)
If Not ComboBoxRenderer.IsSupported Then
Me.Parent.Text = "Visual Styles Disabled"
Return
End If
Me.Parent.Text = "CustomComboBox Enabled"
' Always draw the main text box and drop down arrow in their
' current states.
ComboBoxRenderer.DrawTextBox(e.Graphics, topTextBoxRectangle, _
Me.Text, Me.Font, textBoxState)
ComboBoxRenderer.DrawDropDownButton(e.Graphics, arrowRectangle, _
arrowState)
' Only draw the bottom text box if the arrow has been clicked.
If isActivated Then
ComboBoxRenderer.DrawTextBox(e.Graphics, _
bottomTextBoxRectangle, bottomText, Me.Font, textBoxState)
End If
End Sub
