I need help with GdipFillRectangle and the HatchStyleCross style.

[Airam]

Hi!!
I'm trying to get this code work:

invoke GdipCreateHatchBrush, HatchStyleCross, pColorBlack, pColorWhite, pBrush4
invoke GdipFillRectangle,pGraphics, pBrush4, 120, 100, 100, 50

which has been extracted from here:

http://www.jose.it-berater.org/smfforum/index.php?topic=263.0

The problem is that i get an error by using HatchStyleCross. Then i changed that identifier and i put 4 (i searched it on Internet and find that HatchStyleCross=4), but it still doesn't work.
Does anyone knows what I'm doing wrong?

invoke GdipCreateHatchBrush, HatchStyleCross, pColorBlack, pColorWhite, pBrush4
invoke GdipFillRectangle,pGraphics, pBrush4, 120, 100, 100, 50

It seems you are using pBrush4, but you don't create it. Since I don't have the API specification, I can only guess that
  invoke GdipCreateHatchBrush, HatchStyleCross, pColorBlack, pColorWhite, addr pBrush4
  invoke GdipFillRectangle,pGraphics, pBrush4, 120, 100, 100, 50
could work. If not, try
  invoke GdipCreateHatchBrush, HatchStyleCross, pColorBlack, pColorWhite, addr pBrush4
  invoke GdipFillRectangle,pGraphics, addr pBrush4, 120, 100, 100, 50

thank you jj2007 for your help, but it still doesn't work. These are the 2 problematic lines:

   Invoke GdipCreateHatchBrush, 4, ARGB(255, 0, 0, 0), ARGB(255, 0, 0, 0), Addr brush1
   Invoke GdipFillRectangle, graphics, brush1, 0, 0, 500, 500

I think the problem could be the first parameter of GdipCreateHatchBrush.

Any other ideas?

well looking at just these two lines it's difficult to say anything imo. You could post the entire error description or better the source to let anybody have a look at the problem.
