graphics don't draw when loop condition is dates. c#, winForms
- by jello
so i got this piece of code. (currPosX is defined earlier)
while (earliestDate < DateTime.Today)
{
currPosX = currPosX + 5;
e.Graphics.DrawLine(Pens.Black, currPosX, 0, currPosX, 10);
earliestDate = earliestDate.AddDays(1);
}
the graphics don't draw. it's really weird, since this only happens when the condition statement is a date comparison. I debugged, and it does go in the loop, and the values are messed with (currPosX for example). But, no display. one more weirdness, if I add a MessageBox.Show("blabla") in the loop, the message box pops up, and graphics are drawn. what's going on here?
