region() [1/2]

virtual const xtd::drawing::region & xtd::forms::control::region ( ) const

virtualnoexcept

Gets the window region associated with the control.

Returns

The window xtd::drawing::region associated with the control.

Remarks

The window region is a collection of pixels within the window where the operating system permits drawing. The operating system does not display any portion of a window that lies outside of the window region. The coordinates of a control's region are relative to the upper-left corner of the control, not the client area of the control.

Note

The collection of pixels contained with the region can be noncontiguous.
