Your answer is for draw a rectangle. But the question is how to draw a rectangle in picturebox

Solution 3

This is easy to do with the Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI)... do a search for how to use it (google).

I suppose your Picture Box is a CStatic. You may use its GetBitmap method and then draw on it, as shown, for instance, in the following article: "Drawing lines, shapes, or text on bitmaps"[^].

He can always draw on the parent after the parent has drawn everything else out. He doesn't have to GetBitmap.... although he could... just elaborating...
