C# Graphics Tutorial - Draw Directly to the Screen with User32.dll

[@danielol_99]

Is there a way to refresh all the screen with a method or something? thanks for the video!

[@Eduardo-fx9ih]

very useful tutorial for this topic!!!

If you're getting an OutOfMemoryException on line 14, replace .FromHwnd with .FromHdc.

You're a legend! Thank you

[@eqprog]

Instead of using while (true), you can just add Console.ReadLine(); to the end of your main method so the program won't close.

Awsome Vid, Very cool seeing you tamper with windows like that.. Plus i learn a lil at the same time.. great knowing this stuff because it leads you to code more funky out of the box stuff.. impressive :).. tnx

Instant sub, amazing video

[@apurvakumardani172]

Seems really funny

[@BrandonHilde129]

ya but if you do a loop you can call the draw method many times without having to reopen the program. Also I know about Console.ReadLine(); that is for accepting input into the program and i do use it in the program.

nice

thank you for your work

[@kerdiangmiabok9704]

Thank you. Would appreciate if you could do a tutorial on realtime charting of data from serial comms or generated from a timer. Thanks once again.

[@marcussacana]

and is possible make a eventhandler "onpaint" every frame of the system?

[@BrandonHilde129]

+marcus andré I don't think so. but there may be a way to do it.

[@marcussacana]

i need this to overlay a game... He use python and don't looks is possible hook the directx from he (yes, i can just edit the python source, but i have some special circunstances...)

[@hurnhu]

now how would i get this to redraw, when windows trys to paint over it?. so no matter what you do the picture will stay above everything?

[@BrandonHilde129]

Personally I think you will have more luck with using a borderless form and setting the TopMost property to true and making it fullscreen

[@hurnhu]

DredricOne thats what i have, but id like to do it by just painting directly to the screen. that way i can avoid minimizing or something happening to the transparent form.

[@emilebadenhorst889]

Can you publish source code please

[@anela1420]

+Kollina Notepad++ is the best text editor ever. Close 2nd place is Sublime Text.
