GdiGraphics.DrawString Method (String, Font, SolidBrush, PointF)

Draws a text string without any special effects.

Namespace: Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Drawing
Assembly: Aurigma.GraphicsMill (in Aurigma.GraphicsMill.dll)

Syntax

Visual Basic

Public Sub DrawString ( _
	s As String, _
	font As Font, _
	brush As SolidBrush, _
	point As PointF _
)

public void DrawString(
	string s,
	Font font,
	SolidBrush brush,
	PointF point
)

Parameters

s: Type: System.String
String to draw.

font: Type: Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Drawing.Font
Font object specifying text rendering options.

brush: Type: Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Drawing.SolidBrush
SolidBrush object containing font color.

point: Type: System.Drawing.PointF
Text output point. Actual position of the text relatively this point is defined with HorizontalAlignment and VerticalAlignment properties of the font argument.

Remarks

All the coordinates are measured in units specified with Unit property.

Note

If you draw text on indexed bitmaps, antialiasing is disabled regardless to the Antialiased property value. Also, if the GdiGraphics was created on the base of the Bitmap which has Format8bppGrayScale pixel format, antialiasing will not be applied for text output. The reason of this issue is that GDI does not support grayscale bitmaps. That's why Graphics Mill for .NET represents this image as Format8bppIndexed bitmap with grayscale palette.
