PatternCanvas.FillArea method

Fills the Area (x1,y1)-(x2,y2)

Syntax:

Sub FillArea(ByVal x1 As Long, ByVal y1 As Long, ByVal x2 As Long, ByVal y2 As Long, Optional ByVal State As Boolean = True)

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
x1	Long	Specifies the x-coordinate of the first point that defines the area to fill on the pattern canvas. This value is measured in document units.
y1	Long	Specifies the y-coordinate of the first point that defines the area to fill on the pattern canvas. This value is measured in document units.
x2	Long	Specifies the x-coordinate of the second point that defines the area to fill on the pattern canvas. This value is measured in document units.
y2	Long	Specifies the y-coordinate of the second point that defines the area to fill on the pattern canvas. This value is measured in document units.
State	Boolean	Specifies whether the filled area is returned to its original state after the fill is removed on the pattern canvas. If the value is True, the area is returned to its original state.

Remarks:

The FillArea method fills a rectangular area of a pattern canvas with black or white pixels.

See also the PatternCanvas.Line method.

Examples:

The following VBA example creates a pattern of two overlapping, filled rectangles with an unfilled area at their intersection.

Sub Test()
  Dim c As New PatternCanvas
  c.Size = cdrPatternCanvas32x32
  c.FillArea 0, 0, 31, 31, True
  c.FillArea 0, 0, 18, 18, False
  c.FillArea 14, 14, 31, 31, False
  c.FillArea 14, 14, 18, 18, True
  With ActiveLayer.CreateRectangle(0, 0, 2, 2)
    .Fill.ApplyPatternFill cdrTwoColorPattern
    .Fill.Pattern.Canvas = c
  End With
End Sub
