Moving Object with Paint Event

问题

I have a test tomorrow, and we must use the paint event to redraw our objects, we may not use a timer.

As the MSDN says: "The Paint event is raised when the control is redrawn.", but that,occurs for my known, only when the form is minimized, or got invisible and back visible.

My code:

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Graphics drawArea;
    public int xPos, yPos;

    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }
    private void Form1_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)
    {
        drawArea = e.Graphics;
        DrawUser();
    }

    private void Form1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    {
        switch (e.KeyCode)
        { 
            case Keys.Down:
                yPos++;
                break;
            case Keys.Up:
                yPos--;
                break;
            case Keys.Left:
                xPos--;
                break;
            case Keys.Right:
                xPos++;
                break;
        }
    }

    private void DrawUser()
    {
        drawArea.FillRectangle(new SolidBrush(Color.Red), xPos, yPos, 50, 50);
    }
}

So, When I press the key arrows multiple times, the object only moves after I re-size my form. I want it to move instantly, only using the paint event.

Thanks

I found it!

By adding this.Invalidate(); after the key is pressed. This will tell the paint event to redraw.

It looks like you are tying up your form so it doesnt refresh until you move it. Try putting DoEvents after your drawArea in DrawUser

private void DrawUser()
{
    drawArea.FillRectangle(new SolidBrush(Color.Red), xPos, yPos, 50, 50);
    Application.DoEvents();
}

Be careful of DoEvents though, it can be evil.
