Public Property Pen As Pen

 Property Value

An instance of the MindFusion.Drawing.Pen class. The default value is null.

 Remarks

The property refers to a pen, with which the item frame is painted. When applied to links, the property specifies how their segments are painted.

When set to null, the pen object used to draw the item borders is derived from the item's Style, or from the diagram's current Theme.

 Example

The following example demonstrates how to create a pen with a linear gradient and assign it to the first node of a diagram:

C#  Copy Code

MindFusion.Drawing.Brush penBrush = new MindFusion.Drawing.LinearGradientBrush(
    Color.Bisque, Color.Blue, 0);
diagram.Nodes[0].Pen = new MindFusion.Drawing.Pen(penBrush);

Visual Basic  Copy Code

Dim penBrush As New MindFusion.Drawing.LinearGradientBrush( _
    Color.Bisque, Color.Blue, 0)
diagram.Nodes(0).Pen = New MindFusion.Drawing.Pen(penBrush)
