Rectangle pen width vs borders pen width
posted

We are using Infragistics.Documents for printing a customer contract. We want to build up the layout of the contract from a datasource. One of the items that will be defined in our datasource are rectangles and lines.
My idea was to add those rectangles like this:

        Dim rectangle As Shapes.IRectangle
        rectangle = site.Shapes.AddRectangle()
        With rectangle
            .Pen = Pens.Black
            .Width = 200
            .Height = 100
            .X = 10
            .Y = 10
        End With

The pen has a default width of 1. The constructor of a Pen doesn't accept a width smaller than 1. However when we add a Group or any other container that has a Borders property, the border of the group is thinner than the border of the rectangle:

        Dim group As IGroup
        group = site.AddGroup(10, 10)
        With group
            .Width = New FixedWidth(200)
            .Height = New FixedHeight(100)
            .Borders.All = New Border(Pens.Black)
        End With

Is there any possibility to draw the border of a rectangle with the same width of a border?

Thanks in advance
Kevin
