Remarks

  • This method is useful especially when the user applies an effect on the cell image that causes the image dimensions to change.
  • This method will also repaint the cell. To repaint the cell only recalculating the internal data, use the Invalidate method.
  • To pause repainting to apply a series of effects without refreshing each time an effect is applied, use the BeginUpdate method to keep the cell from being repainted, and then use the EndUpdate method to repaint everything.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0, Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0, Windows Millennium Edition, Windows 2000, Windows XP Home Edition, Windows XP Professional, Windows Server 2003 family
