Is it possible to change PowerPacks.LineShape
smoothingMode?
I tried to use this code(a class that inherits LineShape
):
Protected Overrides Sub OnPaint(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs)
Dim g As Graphics = e.Graphics
' no difference when changing the SmoothingMode '
g.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.AntiAlias
Using pen As New Pen(Color.Blue, 3)
g.DrawLine(pen, X1, Y1, X2, Y2)
End Using
' MyBase.OnPaint(e) '
End Sub
I always have the same result, like this: alt text http://lh6.ggpht.com/_1TPOP7DzY1E/S3v1IbxlbCI/AAAAAAAADD4/q1Y9kP8wJ0g/s800/Capture2.png

EDIT
updated the test:
Protected Overrides Sub OnPaint(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs)
Dim g As Graphics = e.Graphics
Dim oldmode As SmoothingMode = g.SmoothingMode
Using pen As New Pen(Color.Blue, 3)
g.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.AntiAlias
g.DrawLine(pen, X1, Y1, X2, Y2)
g.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode.None
g.DrawLine(pen, X1 + 50, Y1, X2 + 50, Y2)
End Using
g.SmoothingMode = oldmode
g.Flush()
'MyBase.OnPaint(e)'
End Sub
Result (don't take in consideration labels and circles):

apparently smoothing mode is not taken inconsideration...
The question was in my development mode: via Remote Desktop Connection on a virtual PC.
The RDC does not take in consideration in my case the AntiAlias graphics property.
more details: Have you had problems developing on a Virtual PC?
Thanks everybody for participating, sorry that is wasn't a really .NET problem.
