public bool IsVisible (System.Drawing.Point point);
member this.IsVisible : System.Drawing.Point -> bool
Public Function IsVisible (point As Point) As Boolean

Parameters

point
Point

Point structure to test for visibility.

Returns

true if the point specified by the point parameter is contained within the visible clip region of this Graphics; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example is designed for use with Windows Forms, and it requires PaintEventArgs e, which is a parameter of the Paint event handler. The code performs the following actions:

  • Creates a rectangular clipping region and sets it as the clipping region for the graphics object of the form using Replace.

  • Creates two points, one inside the clipping region and one outside.

  • Tests each of the points for visibility and draws only the visible one.

The result is one small red circle, which is within the clip region.

Width of the rectangle to test for visibility.

height
Int32

Height of the rectangle to test for visibility.

Returns

true if the rectangle defined by the x, y, width, and height parameters is contained within the visible clip region of this Graphics; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example is designed for use with Windows Forms, and it requires PaintEventArgs e, which is a parameter of the Paint event handler. The code performs the following actions:

  • Creates a rectangular clipping region and sets it as the clipping region for the graphics object of the form using Replace.

  • Creates the location and size of two rectangles, one inside the clipping region and one outside.

  • Tests each of the rectangles for visibility and draws only the visible one.

The result is one small red rectangle, which is within the clip region.

public:
   void IsVisible4Int( PaintEventArgs^ e )
   {
      // Set clip region.
      System::Drawing::Region^ clipRegion = gcnew System::Drawing::Region( Rectangle(50,50,100,100) );
      e->Graphics->SetClip( clipRegion, CombineMode::Replace );

      // Set up coordinates of rectangles.
      int x1 = 100;
      int y1 = 100;
      int width1 = 20;

      // If rectangle is visible, fill it.
      if ( e->Graphics->IsVisible( x1, y1, width1, height1 ) )
      {
         e->Graphics->FillRectangle( gcnew SolidBrush( Color::Red ), x1, y1, width1, height1 );
      }

      if ( e->Graphics->IsVisible( x2, y2, width2, height2 ) )

IsVisible(Single, Single, Single, Single)

Indicates whether the rectangle specified by a pair of coordinates, a width, and a height is contained within the visible clip region of this Graphics.

public:
 bool IsVisible(float x, float y, float width, float height);
public bool IsVisible (float x, float y, float width, float height);
member this.IsVisible : single * single * single * single -> bool
Public Function IsVisible (x As Single, y As Single, width As Single, height As Single) As Boolean

Parameters

x
Single

The x-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the rectangle to test for visibility.

y
Single

The y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the rectangle to test for visibility.

width
Single

Width of the rectangle to test for visibility.

height
Single

Height of the rectangle to test for visibility.

Returns

true if the rectangle defined by the x, y, width, and height parameters is contained within the visible clip region of this Graphics; otherwise, false.
