The document discusses graphics rendering in .NET using GDI+. It describes how to obtain a Graphics object to draw on and important classes like Bitmap, Brush, Font, Pen, and Graphics. These classes can be used to draw and manipulate shapes, lines, images, and text. The Pen class represents a pen for drawing lines while the Brush class fills areas. Bitmap and Image represent graphics files, with Bitmap being an array of colors. GDI+ also supports features like alpha blending of images and multiple ways of creating Graphics objects.

GDI+

GDI+ isn't the only way of displaying graphics using C#. You can use XNA (on Windows or Xbox), there's WPF and Silverlight. Can be achieved by using following namespaces: System.Drawing; System.Drawing.2D; System.Drawing.Printing; System.Drawing.Text;

How ?

To draw something you have to:

Obtain a Graphics object (the modern name for what in GDI was called a Display context). Draw using the Graphics object methods.

System.Drawing namespace provides access to GDI and basic graphic functionality. Important Classes are : Bitmap,Brush,Font,Graphics,Pen.

Bitmap and Images

Both can be viewed interchangeably. Image class is an abstract Class, two descendants- Bitmap and MetaFile. Metafiles are for vector graphics using a series of recorded and replayed instructions. Bitmap : Array of Colours. Relation between : Bits per pixel & Number of colours that can be assigned to a pixel. GDI+ provides Alpha Blending(Value 0-255).
