C#.NET Rectangle Annotation Overview
This C#.NET rectangle annotation library control from RasterEdge .NET Annotator Add-on successfully stands itself out from other C# rectangle annotator controls based on its powerful functions to create & add fully customized rectangle annotation on source document image file using Visual C# code programmatically. Written in managed C# code and developed in Visual Studio 2005, this C# rectangle annotating assembly component is compatible with all .NET developing applications, like ASP.NET web-based and Windows Forms projects.

C# Rectangle Annotation SDK Features
- Standalone .NET solution that creates rectangle annotation without depending on other third-party imaging SDKs
- Created rectangle annotation can be counted as an independent image object to be processed using C# code
- Easy to create a rectangle annotation with a given size using extremely simple C# code
- Free to relocate generated rectangle annotation on target document image file using C#.NET
- Allow developers to add a shadow (whose thickness and color can be adjusted) to rectangle annotation
- Compatible with .NET Framework 2.0 and above versions
Create Rectangle Annotation in C#.NET
In this section, we will guide you to use RasterEdge C#.NET rectangle annotating control for rectangle annotation on source document image file using Visual C# programming code in .NET class applications.
- Download and unzip the trial package of RasterEdge DocImage SDK for .NET (This C#.NET rectangle annotator add-on is contained in this comprehensive .NET imaging SDK.);
- Find following dlls (which are used to create customized rectangle annotation on target image file) from downloaded trial package and add them to your own C#.NET class project references;
- RasterEdge .Imaging.Basic.dll
- RasterEdge .Imaging.Annotation.dll
- Activate the evaluation license key by running the executive file "RasterEdge.Imaging License Manager.exe";
- Place created license key txt file at the bin folder where above integrated rectangle annotator dlls are located;
- Now, you can create and save a fully-featured rectangle annotation using the C# demo code below.
C#.NET Method to Add Rectangle Annotation
From this C# rectangle annotating method listed below, you can see that RasterEdge rectangle annotator control uses the application of X & Y location to decide the start point of rectangle annotation. And users can easily specify the size of created rectangle annotation by entering the width value and height value directly in C# code. Besides, there are separate command lines to adjust the edge and shadow of created rectangle annotation.
public static RectangleAnnotation CreateRectangleAnnotation(float x, float y, float w, float h);
public static RectangleAnnotation CreateRectangleAnnotation(float x, float y, float w, float h, AnnotationPen outline,
AnnotationBrush fill, AnnotationBrush shadow, float shadowX, float shadowY);
C# Demo Code to Create Rectangle Annotation
The demo C# code below will help developers create a self-defined rectangle annotation and save it to an independent image file.
