drawLine
drawLine(x1: Real;
y1: Real;
x2: Real;
y2: Real;
color: Integer);
The drawLine method of the Window class draws a line on a form or control using a colored pen the width of the drawWidth property, the style of the drawStyle property, and the mode of the drawMode property.
The line drawn by this method extends up to but does not include the end point. If this method is not called from a paint event, set the autoRedraw property to true, as shown in the method in the following example.
redrawGraph() updating;
vars
counter : Real;
s : String;
begin
self.width := self.parent.IGXFrame.clientWidth * 4;
self.height := self.parent.IGXFrame.clientHeight;
self.top := 0;
self.left := 0;
pixelInc := self.clientWidth div 4 div (self.increment + 1);
self.autoRedraw := true;
self.clearGraphics;
self.drawWidth := 3;
self.drawLine(0, 0, self.clientWidth, 0, 0);
counter := 1;
while counter <= increment * 4 do
self.drawLine(counter * pixelInc, 0, counter * pixelInc, 5, 0);
counter := counter + 1;
endwhile;
counter := 1;
foreach s in labelArray do
if counter.Integer div 2 * 2 = counter.Integer then
drawFontSize := 7;
drawTextAt(s, (counter * pixelInc) - 14, 6, 0);
endif;
counter := counter + 1;
endforeach;
end;
The drawLine method parameters are listed in the following table.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| x1, y1 | Left and top start points of the line, respectively |
| x2, y2 | Right and bottom end points of the line, respectively |
| color | Color of the pen used |
The position units of the parameters are
