Thanks Agnes !


Sergio,

You can also use the "RotateAt" function.
We have a sample that does this, but it rotates in the center, look for "transformations.scx" in the samples folder of GdiPlusX

BTW, the "RotateAt" function does internally exactly what Agnes has suggested, so, both solutions will provide EXACTLY the same results.


Asuming that the image to be rotated is "loImg", and its Graphics associated object is "loGfx":

LOCAL loMatrix AS xfcMatrix
LOCAL loPointF AS xfcPointF

WITH _SCREEN.System.Drawing
	loMatrix = .Drawing2D.Matrix.New()

	loPointF = .PointF.New(0, loImg.Height) && this is the point of rotation
	loMatrix.RotateAt(lnRotationAngle, loPointF)

	loGfx.MultiplyTransform(loMatrix)
	loGfx.DrawImage(loImg)
ENDWITH

Hope this helps

Cesar
