Here I have to create a diamond using the drawlines method and make it move horizontally along a path that is halfway from the top of the form.
I created a diamond and moves horizontally, but I want it to start moving from a position that is halfway from the top of the form.
This is the code for creating the diamond,
private void Form1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
{
Graphics g = e.Graphics;
Point p1 = new Point(5+x, 0);
Point p2 = new Point(10+x, 5);
Point p3 = new Point(5+x, 10);
Point p4 = new Point(0+x, 5);
Point[] ps = { p1, p2, p3, p4, p1 };
Pen p_yellow = new Pen(Color.Yellow, 5);
g.DrawLines(p_yellow, ps);
this.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.DarkBlue;
}
I can make it move with a timer, and then code,
private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (x < 500)
x += 2;
else
timer1.Enabled = false;
this.Invalidate();
}
Please tell me how to bring the diamond to a point that is halfway from the top of the mold?
private void Form1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
{
int height = 10;
int middle = height / 2;
int middleform = Form1.height / 2;
int diamondMiddleOfTheForm;
diamondMiddleOfTheForm = middleForm - middle;
Graphics g = e.Graphics;
Point p1 = new Point(5 + x, 0 + diamondMiddleOfTheForm);
Point p2 = new Point(10 + x, 5 + diamondMiddleOfTheForm);
Point p3 = new Point(5 + x, 10 + diamondMiddleOfTheForm);
Point p4 = new Point(0 + x, 5 + diamondMiddleOfTheForm);
Point[] ps = { p1, p2, p3, p4, p1 };
Pen p_yellow = new Pen(Color.Yellow, 5);
g.DrawLines(p_yellow, ps);
this.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.DarkBlue;
}
It shows an error in middleForm = Form1.Height / 2anddiamondMiddleOfTheForm = middleForm - middle
I apologize for my mistake if I did something to implement what you said ...
