SynchronizeMappingWithType Method

Synchronizes the current texture mapper with the Type property of the FillEffectBase.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Sub SynchronizeMappingWithType()

'Usage
 
Dim instance As FillEffect
 
instance.SynchronizeMappingWithType()

public void SynchronizeMappingWithType()

Remarks

Different fill effect types require different mapping strategies. For example when you set a pattern filling type the most appropriate layout is tiled. This function applies an appropriate mapper for the current Type property value.

Example

The following example applies a pattern to the background. Note that we used the SynchronizeMappingWithType to apply a texture mapper appropriate for the pattern filling type.

Visual Basic

Dim chart As Chart = CType((m_ChartControl.Charts(0)), Chart)
Dim fillEffect As FillEffectBase =  m_ChartControl.Background.FillEffect 
fillEffect.Type = FillEffectType.Pattern
fillEffect.HatchStyle = HatchStyle.DarkDownwardDiagonal
fillEffect.BeginColor = Color.AliceBlue
fillEffect.BeginColor = Color.BlanchedAlmond
fillEffect.SynchronizeMappingWithType()

Chart chart = (Chart)(m_ChartControl.Charts[0]);
FillEffectBase fillEffect = m_ChartControl.Background.FillEffect;
fillEffect.Type = FillEffectType.Pattern;
fillEffect.HatchStyle = HatchStyle.DarkDownwardDiagonal;
fillEffect.BeginColor = Color.AliceBlue;
fillEffect.BeginColor = Color.BlanchedAlmond;
fillEffect.SynchronizeMappingWithType();
