Returns the draw object of the current picture offering several drawing operations.
The object "Draw" can only be used with the event "Draw".

Hint:
For the use of events in an object, DynPicture of this picture must be defined with WithEvents.

Sample:

The following example uses the object Draw. Opening the picture DRAW_API executes the event Draw. The object Picture must be defined with WithEvents. The picture is found in ProjectActive.

Private WithEvents m_obDialogPic As DynPicture
Private m_obPicDraw As Draw

'*** Initialize the project
Private Sub Project_Active()
	'*** get picture DRAW_API for draw-event
	Set m_obDialogPic = thisProject.DynPictures.Item("DRAW_API")
	If (m_obDialogPic Is Nothing) Then
		MsgBox "Error: invalid-picture..."
		Exit Sub
	End If

	Set m_obPicDraw = m_obDialogPic.DrawApi
End Sub

'*** Drawing with drawapi of the picture
Private Sub m_obDialogPic_Draw(ByVal hdc As stdole.OLE_HANDLE, _
							 ByVal Left As Long, ByVal Top As Long, _
							 ByVal Bottom As Long, ByVal Right As Long)

	If (Not m_obPicDraw Is Nothing) Then
		m_obPicDraw.SetBkColor hdc, vbMagenta
		m_obPicDraw.FillSolidRect hdc, 200, 200, 200, 200, vbBlue
	End If
End Sub
