Hi,

Is there some sample code somewhere on how to convert between a .net System.Drawing.Color and a TGIS_Color?

Thanks,

Hamish

Something like

Color WindormsColor( TGIS_Color _color )
{
  Return ( Color.FromArgb( _color.A, _color.R, _color.G, _color.B ) ) ;
}

TGIS_Color GISColor( Color _color )
{
  Return ( TGIS_Color.FromARGB( _color.A, _color.R, _color.G, _color.B ) ) ; 
}

private Color to_native_color(TGIS_Color _cl) {
        // Return Color.FromArgb(CType(_cl.ToARGB, Integer))
        return Color.FromArgb(BitConverter.ToInt32(BitConverter.GetBytes(_cl.ToARGB), 0));
    }

    private TGIS_Color to_gis_color(Color _cl) {
        return TGIS_Color.FromARGB(BitConverter.ToUInt32(BitConverter.GetBytes(_cl.ToArgb), 0));
    }
