how to draw crosshairs on a chart that go to the height and width of the chart and move with the cur

[Steve]

I am at a loss with graphics to know how to draw crosshairs on a chart that
go to the height and width of the chart and move with the cursor position?

Ideally i would like to have the behavour the same as the smaller crosshairs
of the standard cursor but enlarged to the edges of the chart.

I have a Delphi background and am new to VS C# - prevously i used (Delphi
code) ChartImage.canvas.pen.mode:=pmnot; which allowed me to draw lines and
then clear them before
moving on to the next position (in the onmousemove event).

I thought i would be able to do this in C# as well but have not found a way.

Any ideas or suggestions most welcome - email is (e-mail address removed)

rgds,Steve

Steve,

Raster operation don't work anymore with .NET and GDI+. You need to draw the
lines and then repaint the control underneath.
However there is a class System.Windows.Forms.ControlPaint that provides a
method called DrawReversibleLine that can be used, but it is pretty simple
and uses screen coordinates (draws on the screen DC rather then on
particular control)
