RedirectControl Property

Summary

External control that can be used to re-direct the spy glass render.

Syntax

C++

public Control RedirectControl { get; set; }

Public Property RedirectControl() As System.Windows.Forms.Control 
   Get 
   Set

public:  
   property System::Windows::Forms::Control^ RedirectControl 
   { 
      System::Windows::Forms::Control^ get() 
      void set(System::Windows::Forms::Control^ value) 
   }

Property Value

The external control that can be used to re-direct the spy glass render. Default value is null.

Remarks

ImageViewerSpyGlassInteractiveMode supports redirecting the render output to an external control instead of the area under the mouse in the viewer. When this value is set to a valid control on the form, the interactive mode will subscribe to the control System.Windows.Forms.Control.Paint event and will render the magnifying glass content to the surface of this control. Any Windows Forms will work: however, a custom user control or a System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox control is the most efficient since it supports double buffering.
