Assembly: DevExpress.XtraPivotGrid.v23.2.dll

Property Value

Type	Description
Graphics	A Graphics object.

Remarks

The Graphics property provides access to an object which represents the painting surface. When custom painting an element in a PivotGridControl, you can use the Graphics object’s methods and properties.

Note

If you try to access the Graphics property while an asynchronous operation is being performed, an exception will be thrown. When the operation is in progress, use the PivotCustomDrawThreadSafeEventArgs.Graphics property exposed by a thread-safe event parameter instead. To access the thread-safe event parameter, use the PivotCustomDrawEventArgs.ThreadSafeArgs property. To determine whether an asynchronous operation is being performed, use the pivot grid’s IThreadSafeAccessible.IsAsyncInProgress property. For more information, see Asynchronous Mode.
