// Create a QR code.
BarCode barCode = new BarCode();

barCode.CodeText = "https://www.devexpress.com";
barCode.BackColor = Color.White;
barCode.ForeColor = Color.Black;
barCode.RotationAngle = 0;
barCode.CodeBinaryData = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(barCode.CodeText);
barCode.Options.QRCode.CompactionMode = DevExpress.BarCodes.QRCodeCompactionMode.Byte;
barCode.Options.QRCode.ErrorLevel = QRCodeErrorLevel.Q;
barCode.Options.QRCode.ShowCodeText = false;
barCode.DpiX = 72;
barCode.DpiY = 72;
barCode.Module = 2f;

//Specify the frame settings.
RectangleQRFrameOptions frameOpt = new RectangleQRFrameOptions() {
    FrameWidth = 4,
    FrameColor = System.Drawing.Color.DarkRed,
    Text = "Scan me",
    TextAlignment = QRFrameTextAlignment.Baseline,
    TextPosition = QRFrameTextPosition.Top,
    CornerRadius = 5
};
barCode.Options.QRCode.FrameOptions = frameOpt;

// Save the barcode as an image.
barCode.Save("BarCodeImage.png", DXImageFormat.Png);
// Open the image in the default viewer.
Process.Start(new ProcessStartInfo("BarCodeImage.png") { UseShellExecute = true });
