Rendering a Focus Rectangle

Although you can use the DrawRectangle method to render a focus rectangle, you’ll have to set up the pen to render in the stadard dotted format. However, in the controlpaint static class there is already a DrawFocusRectangle method which does the job for you and makes the appropriate system call.

[csharp]

ControlPaint.DrawFocusRectangle(g, FocusRect);

[/csharp]

ControlPaint is found in System.Windows.Forms.
