From what I have been able to gather I have understood that because of the
nature which GDI+ works, the Draw** methods will always draw 1 more pixel
than you had expected.
One explination I read for this is because it accounts for the width of the

Hi! Can u please tech me a way to know if the image in the picturebox has
changed? what event should i catch the chage?

I have a bitmap (32 pixels high, 8192 pixels wide) that contains 255
images, each 32 pixels wide, that I would like to chop up into
individual 32x32 bitmap files. Rather than spending hours in Paint or
Photoshop I would like to do this programmatically. My code below

Run into a problem I can't find a solution for. I'm writing a C# app
which has a custom background for the form (a gradient). I've
successfully overridden the forms OnPaintBackground(PaintEventArgs
pevent) method to paint the background.

Does anybody know how I would go about building a program where the user
could drag and drop clipart onto a form (I know this can be done) but once
they are finished, they can save the entire as an image.
E.G.  The form is going to represent a backyard, and I want to build it so

I am having a funny issue with rotating an image. I am modifying the
code that creates a rounded corner image, and it appears that the arc
that it draws is getting 'lost' during rotation.
I have no problems with the straight lines that I draw, but the arc

I'm trying to figure out a way to change the default spacing between
letters in a string.  It seems like it should be easy enough to do,
but I can't find anything on it.
Right now I'm using:

I have a seemingly simple problem that I've been unable to find the solution
for.
I have 15 sets of predefined palettes, each having 15 colors.  All I'm
trying to do, is load images (jpg, gif, or bmp) or any size into a 32x32

I compiled and ran the sample code from the GDI+ FAQ found here:
http://www.bobpowell.net/bestfit.htm
The program worked correctly for GIF and BMP files, but when I tried a JPG, it
appeared to translate, but not scale (the height of the image I was using was

We are generating a serverside gif-image from a textinput. The problem
is that we also are trying to draw a border around the text at the
image.
First we draw the image using Bitmap and graphics, then we use

I'm using the System.Drawing.Bitmap class for loading a 32-bit bmp file which
includes an alpha channel.
The problem is, when it gets loaded (just using the Bitmap(string filename)
constructor), it doesn't bother bringing the alpha along with it. All of the

does anybody know what System.Drawing.Internal.SystemColorTracker is doing?
The reason I ask this is a strange behavioer I found in my application.
I think I can fix the problem, but the behavior of this component
(SystemColorTracker) seems really confusing.

Is there a way to determine the physical size of the client rectangle?
i.e. I have a panel i draw to, and I want to know the actual physical size
of the rectangle, regardless of the scren resolution.
My first attemp was just using e.Graphics.DpiX and e.Graphics.Pixel but

Is there anyway to draw transparent text on an black rectangle (without
using a temporary bitmap) in GDI Plus?
This should leave etched out letters in a black area through which I can see
the background.

is it possible to change print
orientation page by page
say
