Why FillPath is Different Result in PictureBox and PrintDocument ?

I haven’t yet had a good look at your code, but I can guess the problem. The printed page has margins which limit the area you can draw in. I’ll have another look on my workstation now...

I stand by what i said...

BTW... CDec(10) is equal to 10D

Did You Try To Test My code in a Form ? or you talk only about Codes in my Question ?

Put a Picturebox and 2 Button and a PrintDocument and PrintPreviewDialog into a FORM...

Then copy paste my code

With Button1 Call Printdocument PrintPage.

then dont you see anything when Debug codes ?

Try this...

Private Sub PrintDocument2_PrintPage(sender As Object, e As PrintPageEventArgs) Handles PrintDocument2.PrintPage

    Dim newImage As Image = Drawing.Image.FromFile("C:\Users\Yaman\Desktop\Frames\384.jpg")
    Dim imaj As Bitmap = New Bitmap("C:\Users\Yaman\Desktop\Frames\384.jpg")
    Dim grpX As Graphics = e.Graphics 

    Dim rectX As Rectangle = New Rectangle(e.MarginBounds.Left + 10, e.MarginBounds.Top + 10, 200, 100)
    Dim tg As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(imaj) 
    tg.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.AntiAlias
    grpX.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.AntiAlias
    tg.DrawImage(newImage, 10, 10, 200, 100)        
    Dim TBrush As New TextureBrush(imaj)
    Dim gp As New GraphicsPath
    gp = createRoundRect(rectX, 12)
    grpX.FillPath(TBrush, gp)

End Sub

tg.DrawImage(newImage, 10, 10, 200, 100)

That should probably be 0, 0, 200, 100

What is the size of the picturebox?

[.paul.]

And the 2 images you’re loading. What size are they?
What is your picturebox SizeMode?

[Nicomendox]

384.Jpg size is 1024x697

I don't change any size mode. Keep as default.

[.paul.]

So what size is the picturebox???

[Nicomendox]

Picturebox size is not important. But size is 600x600

I just onlt try to fillPath as I could do in Picturebox

Even PictureBox Size 700x400 or 500x300 or any size Same Result. I just wonder why code is working in PictureBox but not work in Printdocument...

[.paul.]

Private Sub PrintDocument2_PrintPage(sender As Object, e As PrintPageEventArgs) Handles PrintDocument2.PrintPage

    Dim newImage As New Bitmap("C:\Users\Yaman\Desktop\Frames\384.jpg", 200, 100)
    Dim imaj As New Bitmap("C:\Users\Yaman\Desktop\Frames\384.jpg", 200, 100)
    Dim grpX As Graphics = e.Graphics 

    Dim rectX As Rectangle = New Rectangle(e.MarginBounds.Left + 10, e.MarginBounds.Top + 10, 200, 100)
    Dim tg As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(imaj) 
    tg.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.AntiAlias
    grpX.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.AntiAlias
    tg.DrawImage(newImage, 10, 10, 200, 100)        
    Dim TBrush As New TextureBrush(imaj)
    Dim gp As New GraphicsPath
    gp = createRoundRect(rectX, 12)
    grpX.FillPath(TBrush, gp)

End Sub

BTW picturebox size is important - more than you think. particularly if you have SizeMode set to stretch

Paul thank you for your effort to find Solution.

Did you tried to code with any image in your computer ?

if problem is in my Computer ?

[.paul.]

Dim newImage As New Bitmap("C:\Users\Yaman\Desktop\Frames\384.jpg", 200, 100)
Dim imaj As New Bitmap("C:\Users\Yaman\Desktop\Frames\384.jpg", 200, 100)

Change those to...

Dim newImage As New Bitmap("C:\Users\Yaman\Desktop\Frames\384.jpg")
newImage = New Bitmap(newImage, 200, 100)
Dim imaj As New Bitmap("C:\Users\Yaman\Desktop\Frames\384.jpg")
imaj = New Bitmap(imaj, 200, 100)
