BitmapDataExtensionsFillRectangle(IReadWriteBitmapData, Brush, RectangleF, DrawingOptions, ParallelConfig) Method

Fills a rectangle with the specified Brush.

Definition

Namespace: KGySoft.Drawing.Shapes
Assembly: KGySoft.Drawing.Core (in KGySoft.Drawing.Core.dll) Version: 10.0.0-rc.1
C#
public static bool FillRectangle(
	this IReadWriteBitmapData bitmapData,
	Brush brush,
	RectangleF rectangle,
	DrawingOptions? drawingOptions = null,
	ParallelConfig? parallelConfig = null
)

Parameters

bitmapData  IReadWriteBitmapData
The IReadWriteBitmapData instance to draw on.
brush  Brush
The Brush to use for filling the rectangle.
rectangle  RectangleF
The rectangle to fill.
drawingOptions  DrawingOptions  (Optional)
A DrawingOptions instance that specifies the drawing options to use. If , then the default options are used. This parameter is optional.
Default value: .
parallelConfig  ParallelConfig  (Optional)
The configuration of the operation such as parallelization, cancellation, reporting progress, etc. When Progress is set in this parameter, then this library always passes a DrawingOperation instance to the generic methods of the IAsyncProgress interface. If , then the degree of parallelization is configured automatically. This parameter is optional.
Default value: .

Return Value

Boolean
, if the operation completed successfully.
, if the operation has been canceled and the ThrowIfCanceled property of the parallelConfig parameter was .

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IReadWriteBitmapData. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

When filling a rectangle, the right/bottom values of the coordinates are exclusive, so if the width or height is zero, then nothing is drawn.

This method tries to use a shortcut to fill the rectangle directly, which is faster than creating a Path and adding the rectangle to it. A shortcut is possible when the location and size are integer values, the specified brush is a solid brush with an opaque color, and if drawingOptions is either , or it specifies that no anti-aliasing and no alpha blending is required, the transformation is the identity matrix, and neither Quantizer nor Ditherer is specified.

  Note

This method blocks the caller as it executes synchronously, though the parallelConfig parameter allows configuring the degree of parallelism, cancellation and progress reporting. Use the BeginFillRectangle or FillRectangleAsync (in .NET Framework 4.0 and above) methods to perform the operation asynchronously.

Exceptions

ArgumentNullExceptionbitmapData or brush is .
OverflowExceptionThe coordinates (after a possible transformation specified in drawingOptions) are outside the bounds of an int value.
OperationCanceledExceptionThe operation has been canceled and the ThrowIfCanceled property in parallelConfig was .
