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.
