Displaying a picture object in a canvas

Getting Started
1

I have a picture object in my program. Is there a handy way to display it in a canvas. I know you can get the contents of a canvas into a picture with the Drawinto method. But can I do it the other way round?

2

The simplest solution is to just use the Canvas’ BackDrop property

myCanvas.BackDrop = myPicture

3

Using the Paint event handler of the Canvas:

g.DrawPicture(MyPicture, 0, 0)

Tim, Paul,
Thanks for your suggestions. I’m having to do something else urgently now. Will try your tips out tomorrow and get you feedback.

Mind WebCanvas doesn’t have Backdrop property.
