WrapMode Enum

Definition

Namespace:

System.Drawing.Drawing2D

Assembly:

System.Drawing.Common.dll

Source:

WrapMode.cs

Specifies how a texture or gradient is tiled when it is smaller than the area being filled.

C#

public enum WrapMode

Inheritance

Object

ValueType

Enum

WrapMode

Fields

Name	Value	Description
Tile	0	Tiles the gradient or texture.
TileFlipX	1	Reverses the texture or gradient horizontally and then tiles the texture or gradient.
TileFlipY	2	Reverses the texture or gradient vertically and then tiles the texture or gradient.
TileFlipXY	3	Reverses the texture or gradient horizontally and vertically and then tiles the texture or gradient.
Clamp	4	The texture or gradient is not tiled.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to obtain a new bitmap using the FromFile method. It also demonstrates a TextureBrush and the WrapMode enumeration. This example is designed to be used with Windows Forms. Create a form containing a button named Button2. Paste the code into the form and associate the Button2_Click method with the button's Click event.

C#

private void Button2_Click(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    try
    {
        Bitmap image1 = (Bitmap) Image.FromFile(@"C:\Documents and Settings\" +
            @"All Users\Documents\My Music\music.bmp", true);

        TextureBrush texture = new TextureBrush(image1);
        texture.WrapMode = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.WrapMode.Tile;
        Graphics formGraphics = this.CreateGraphics();
        formGraphics.FillEllipse(texture, 
            new RectangleF(90.0F, 110.0F, 100, 100));
        formGraphics.Dispose();
    }
    catch(System.IO.FileNotFoundException)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("There was an error opening the bitmap." +
            "Please check the path.");
    }
}

Remarks

Brushes use this enumeration to determine how shapes are filled. To see examples of the effects the WrapMode enumeration values have on a tiled image, see How to: Tile a Shape with an Image.
