client_rectangle()

virtual const drawing::rectangle & xtd::forms::control::client_rectangle ( ) const

virtualnoexcept

Gets the rectangle that represents the client area of the control.

Returns

A rectangle that represents the client area of the control.

Remarks

The client area of a control is the bounds of the control, minus the nonclient elements such as scroll bars, borders, title bars, and menus.

Because client coordinates are relative to the upper-left corner of the client area of the control, the coordinates of the upper-left corner of the rectangle returned by this property are (0,0). You can use this property to obtain the size and coordinates of the client area of the control for tasks such as drawing on the surface of the control.
