System.Drawing.Graphics

[DBC User]

Hi Sharpies,

This is a very basic question. I am using .Net IDE 2003 and
System.Drawing.dll (1.1.4322). I wrote a simple program like this
(ommitting the commons)

using System.Drawing;

..
..
..
private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Graphics graph = new Graphics();
graph = Graphics.FromHwnd(pictureBox1.Handle); //**** line
}

When I tried Graphics. in the **** line, I was expecting FromHwnd to
appear through intellisense, but it didn't. When I tried
System.Drawing. I was expecting Graphics to appear in the intellisense
but it didn't. I am sure I am missing something very simple. Please
help.

First of all. Before you tie yourself in horrible knots, go read the GDI+
FAQ. You'll feel better afterwards. I promise.
