Programmatically drawing a square in Telerik Reporting

[Sven Nilsen]

I'm trying to build a telerik report programmatically, but I can't find ShapeType = SquareShape (in Telerik.Reporting.Drawing.Shapes). Square is a shapetype in report designer. Anybody who knows how to create squares programmatically?

Hello Sven,

Here is part of the code that the Designer generates when you add a shape:

private Telerik.Reporting.Shape shape1;
shape1.ShapeType = new Telerik.Reporting.Drawing.Shapes.PolygonShape(4, 45, 0);
shape1.Size = new Telerik.Reporting.Drawing.SizeU(...

Generally if you have troubles creating something with code the easiest way to check it, is to create it in the Designer and see the code it generates in the YourReportName.Designer.cs file.

Best wishes,
