GraphicsPathIterator.Enumerate(PointF[], Byte[]) Method

Definition

Copies the PathPoints property and PathTypes property arrays of the associated GraphicsPath into the two specified arrays.

public:
 int Enumerate(cli::array <System::Drawing::PointF> ^ % points, cli::array <System::Byte> ^ % types);
public int Enumerate (ref System.Drawing.PointF[] points, ref byte[] types);
member this.Enumerate : PointF[] * Byte[] -> int
Public Function Enumerate (ByRef points As PointF(), ByRef types As Byte()) As Integer

Parameters

points
PointF[]

Upon return, contains an array of PointF structures that represents the points in the path.

types
Byte[]

Upon return, contains an array of bytes that represents the types of points in the path.

Returns

The number of points copied.

Examples

The following example is designed for use with Windows Forms, and it requires PaintEventArgs e, an OnPaint event object. The code performs the following actions:

  • Creates a graphics path.

  • Populates it with several primitives and some markers.

  • Lists the path data on the left side of the screen.

  • Creates a GraphicsPathIterator and rewinds it.

  • Increments the path data index to the second marker.

  • Calls the Enumerate method to copy the path data to the points and types arrays.

  • Lists this copied data on the right side of the screen.
