The majority of previously built code should work without modification assuming the new namespaces are added.

Public Methods

BeginDrawing(Object, RectangleShape, GeographyUnit)

This method begins the act of drawing on the GeoCanvas.

Remarks

This is the first method that needs to be called before any drawing takes place. Calling this method will set the IsDrawing property to true. When you finish drawing, you must call EndDrawing to commit the changes to the image.

Return Value

DrawArea(Feature, GeoBrush, DrawingLevel)

This method draws an area on the GeoCanvas.

Overloads

This overload allows you to pass in the GeoBrush and the DrawingLevel you want to draw on.

Remarks

This method is used to draw on the GeoCanvas. It provides you with a number of overloads that allow you to control how things are drawn. Specify the GeoBrush to fill in an area. Specify the GeoPen to outline an area using that GeoPen. You can also call an overload that will allow you to specify both a GeoPen and a GeoBrush.

The DrawingLevel allows you to specify the level you will draw on when you are drawing multiple areas. This is very useful when you want to draw a drop shadow, for example. In that case, you could draw the black backdrop on the lowest level with an offset, then draw the normal shape on a higher level without an offset.

CurrentWorldExtent

This property gets the adjusted current extent based on what was set when BeginDrawing was called.
