Description

The SetDashedPen method configures the pen used for drawing operations on the Bitmap object to have a dashed pattern. This method allows you to specify the color, width, and dash pattern of the pen, enabling the creation of dashed lines in various drawing operations.

Usage

To use the SetDashedPen method, you need to provide the following parameters:

  • color: A Color object that defines the color of the pen.
  • width: A float value that specifies the width of the pen.
  • dashPattern: An array of float values that defines the pattern of dashes and gaps. For example, an array of {2.0f, 1.0f} would create a pattern of 2 units of dash followed by 1 unit of gap.

Once set, the dashed pen will be used for subsequent drawing operations on the Bitmap object.

Example

// Example of using SetDashedPen
Bitmap bitmap = new Bitmap();
Color penColor = new Color(255, 0, 0); // Red color
float penWidth = 2.0f;
float[] dashPattern = { 5.0f, 2.0f }; // Dash pattern: 5 units on, 2 units off

bitmap.SetDashedPen(penColor, penWidth, dashPattern);

// Now you can use the bitmap to draw dashed lines with the specified pen settings.
