I've written a short graphics test program. Basically the program executes when a button (button event) is pressed. I then wanted to use button.performclick in a Paint Event but the graphics in the button event does not work. I'm using a picture box as the canvas. Any suggestions. BTW the performclick does work for code other than graphics.
performclick and graphics

Perhaps you need to post some code and define 'does not work', my first guess is that you're saying your code just keeps creating paint events

OK here is an outline of the code..
private void btnOK_Click(object sender,EventArgs e)
{
Graphics gx = DrawBox.CreateGraphics(); // DrawBox is a picturebox
// simple graphics here
gx.Dispose;
}
// the above works fine!!!!!
private void Form1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
{
btnOK.PerformClick(); // the code in the button event does not execute;
}
// I tried regular code in the button event and PerformClick does cause the button event code to execute.
