Public Property DrawMode As PP_DrawMode |
A PP_DrawMode enumeration value which determines the appearance of output from graphics methods.
Use this property to produce visual effects when drawing with the graphics methods. The printer compares each pixel in the draw pattern to the corresponding pixel in the existing background and then applies bit-wise operations. For example, setting 7 uses the operator to combine a draw pattern pixel with a background pixel.
The exact effect of a DrawMode setting depends on the way the color of a line, drawn at run time, combines with colors already on the printer. Settings 1, 6, 7, 11, 13, and 16 yield the most predictable results.
