Apply texture on text?

[Lasse Edsvik]

Hello

I was wondering if you guys know how i can apply a picture as texture on
text?

I have this:

Font font = new Font("Verdana", 18);

SolidBrush sb = new SolidBrush(Color.Red);

Bitmap tb = new Bitmap(200,60);

Graphics bmpGraphics = Graphics.FromImage(tb);
font.GetHeight

bmpGraphics.Clear(Color.White);

bmpGraphics.DrawString("Lasse", font, sb, 14, 10);

tb.Save(@"c:\inetpub\wwwroot\dbtest\text.jpg", ImageFormat.Jpeg);

Hi Lasse,

You can use a TextureBrush

Image i = Image.FromFile("n:\\open-gate.jpg");
TextureBrush b = new TextureBrush(i);
Graphics.DrawString("HELLO WORLD", new Font("Arial", 30), b, 50, 50);

Morten,

thanks, but when I write

Image i = new Image. I only get "GetThumbnailImageAbort" shown in that
droplist.

i've got:

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Drawing2D;
using System.Drawing.Imaging;

have i forgot something?

TIA
