Description
Provides access to a drawing surface that represents the bitmap.
Canvas allows drawing on the bitmap by providing a T Canvas object for this purpose. Drawing on the canvas effectively modifies the underlying bitmap image pixels. Any canvas operation is valid on a bitmap (not just Draw and StretchDraw) including line drawing, rectangles, and circles. The bitmap object is passed as a parameter to these methods.
A canvas object is created automatically for the bitmap and the property is read-only.
