Assuming you have a Rectangle (myRect) and a Graphics object (g), how
about...

    g.FillRectangle(SystemBrushes.Desktop, myRect); //Draws the
"fill"
    g.DrawRectangle(SystemPens.ControlDark, myRect); //Draws the
"border"

Folks,

It's just me or GDI+ isn't that good.
Ok, you can do gradient filling with easy, but to draw a simple Filled
rectangle with border you have to call two methods...

In old gdi, you select a pen and a brush and call Rectangle.

But what drives me crazy is the Rectangle class. Maybe I didn't read the
docs properly, but this kind of thing that I was used to do with MFC is not
that simple anymore:

CRect rc = rcSrc;
rc.top += 20;

to do it in GDI+, according to my way:

Rectangle rc = new Rectangle(x, y, width, height);
rc.X += 20;
rc.Height -= 20;

This is awfull...

Cheers,
