How to draw rounded raised and sunken edges of control?

Question

I need a way to draw rounded raised and sunken corner edges on a user control. I am currently using ControlPaint.DrawBorder3D, but of course the corners are squared and look awful. How can this be done? In addition, this project is not allowed to use any PInvoke calls.

Answer 1

you need to draw it by hand using a series of arcs and lines. the easiest way is to add them to the Path and use Graphics.DrawPath (...)
