AnalysisRegion.Union Method (AnalysisRegion)

Expands the area of this AnalysisRegion to the area created by its union with the specified AnalysisRegion.

Namespace:  System.Windows.Ink
Assembly:  IAWinFX (in IAWinFX.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub Union ( _
    regionToUnion As AnalysisRegion _
)
'Usage
Dim instance As AnalysisRegion 
Dim regionToUnion As AnalysisRegion

instance.Union(regionToUnion)
public void Union(
    AnalysisRegion regionToUnion
)
public:
void Union(
    AnalysisRegion^ regionToUnion
)
public function Union(
    regionToUnion : AnalysisRegion
)

Parameters

Remarks

If either area is infinite, the new area is also infinite.

Examples

This example creates two AnalysisRegion objects. It uses the Intersect, Union, and Exclude methods to modify the objects' areas.

' Create an infinite AnalysisRegion. 
Dim theFirstAnalysisRegion As New AnalysisRegion()
' Create a finite AnalysisRegion. 
Dim theSecondAnalysisRegion As New AnalysisRegion(New Rect(100, 100, 200, 200))
' Extend an AnalysisRegion using the Union method and an AnalysisRegion.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Union(theSecondAnalysisRegion)

' Extend an AnalysisRegion using the Union method and a rectangle.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Union(New Rect(100, 100, 200, 200))

' Restrict an AnalysisRegion using the Intersect method and an AnalysisRegion.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Intersect(theSecondAnalysisRegion)

' Restrict an AnalysisRegion using the Intersect method and a rectangle.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Intersect(New Rect(100, 100, 200, 200))

' Modify an AnalysisRegion using the Exclude method and an AnalysisRegion.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Exclude(theSecondAnalysisRegion)

' Modify an AnalysisRegion using the Exclude method and a rectangle.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Exclude(New Rect(100, 100, 200, 200))
// Create an infinite AnalysisRegion.
AnalysisRegion theFirstAnalysisRegion =
    new AnalysisRegion();

// Create a finite AnalysisRegion.
AnalysisRegion theSecondAnalysisRegion =
    new AnalysisRegion(
        new Rect(100, 100, 200, 200));

// Extend an AnalysisRegion using the Union method and an AnalysisRegion.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Union(theSecondAnalysisRegion);

// Extend an AnalysisRegion using the Union method and a rectangle.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Union(new Rect(100, 100, 200, 200));

// Restrict an AnalysisRegion using the Intersect method and an AnalysisRegion.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Intersect(theSecondAnalysisRegion);

// Restrict an AnalysisRegion using the Intersect method and a rectangle.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Intersect(new Rect(100, 100, 200, 200));

// Modify an AnalysisRegion using the Exclude method and an AnalysisRegion.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Exclude(theSecondAnalysisRegion);

// Modify an AnalysisRegion using the Exclude method and a rectangle.
theFirstAnalysisRegion.Exclude(new Rect(100, 100, 200, 200));
