Is it possible to rotate a rectangle shape in VB.net?
Code to my rectangle shape is this
baseDice.Parent = shapeContainer
baseDice.CornerRadius = 5
baseDice.Height = 50
baseDice.Width = 50
baseDice.BackColor = Color.Blue
baseDice.BackStyle = BackStyle.Opaque
baseDice.Left = 50
baseDice.Top = 50
baseDice.Name = "baseDice"
baseDice
is an object of Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.RecntangleShape
Use the VB Class Matrix, here's an example
Dim myPen As New Pen(Color.Blue, 1)
Dim myPen2 As New Pen(Color.Red, 1)
e.Graphics.DrawRectangle(myPen, 150, 50, 200, 100)
Dim myMatrix As New Matrix()
myMatrix.Rotate(45, MatrixOrder.Append)
e.Graphics.Transform = myMatrix
e.Graphics.DrawRectangle(myPen2, 150, 50, 200, 100)
In the Matrix.Rotate you give it the angle and what the type of transform is (you can use Append to constantly rotate by an angle)
e is of PaintEventArgs type
