Диапазон выбора элемента управления MonthCalendar с EnableVisualStyles?

В поисках решения той же проблемы я впервые столкнулся с этим вопросом здесь, но позже я обнаружил запись в блоге Ник Андерссон. что я нашел очень полезным. Вот что я сделал из примера Ника:

public class MonthCalendarEx : System.Windows.Forms.MonthCalendar
{
    private int _offsetX;
    private int _offsetY;
    private int _dayBoxWidth;
    private int _dayBoxHeight;

    private bool _repaintSelectedDays = false;

    public MonthCalendarEx() : base()
    {
        OnSizeChanged(null, null);
        this.SizeChanged += OnSizeChanged;
        this.DateChanged += OnSelectionChanged;
        this.DateSelected += OnSelectionChanged;
    }

    protected static int WM_PAINT = 0x000F;

    protected override void WndProc(ref System.Windows.Forms.Message m)
    {
        base.WndProc(ref m);
        if (m.Msg == WM_PAINT)
        {
            Graphics graphics = Graphics.FromHwnd(this.Handle);
            PaintEventArgs pe = new PaintEventArgs(
                graphics, new Rectangle(0, 0, this.Width, this.Height));
            OnPaint(pe);
        }
    }

    private void OnSelectionChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        _repaintSelectedDays = true;
    }

    private void OnSizeChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {                         
        _offsetX = 0;
        _offsetY = 0;

        // determine Y offset of days area 
        while (
            HitTest(Width / 2, _offsetY).HitArea != HitArea.PrevMonthDate &&
            HitTest(Width / 2, _offsetY).HitArea != HitArea.Date)
        {
            _offsetY++;
        }

        // determine X offset of days area 
        while (HitTest(_offsetX, Height / 2).HitArea != HitArea.Date)
        {
            _offsetX++;
        }

        // determine width of a single day box
        _dayBoxWidth = 0;
        DateTime dt1 = HitTest(Width / 2, _offsetY).Time;

        while (HitTest(Width / 2, _offsetY + _dayBoxHeight).Time == dt1)
        {
            _dayBoxHeight++;
        }

        // determine height of a single day box
        _dayBoxWidth = 0;
        DateTime dt2 = HitTest(_offsetX, Height / 2).Time;

        while (HitTest(_offsetX + _dayBoxWidth, Height / 2).Time == dt2)
        {
            _dayBoxWidth++;
        }
    }

    protected override void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e)
    { 
        base.OnPaint(e);

        if (_repaintSelectedDays)
        {
            Graphics graphics = e.Graphics;
            SelectionRange calendarRange = GetDisplayRange(false);
            Rectangle currentDayFrame = new Rectangle(
                -1, -1, _dayBoxWidth, _dayBoxHeight);

            DateTime current = SelectionStart;
            while (current <= SelectionEnd)                
            {
                Rectangle currentDayRectangle;

                using (Brush selectionBrush = new SolidBrush(
                    Color.FromArgb(
                        255, System.Drawing.SystemColors.ActiveCaption))) 
                {                    
                    TimeSpan span = current.Subtract(calendarRange.Start); 
                    int row = span.Days / 7; 
                    int col = span.Days % 7; 

                    currentDayRectangle = new Rectangle(
                        _offsetX + (col + (ShowWeekNumbers ? 1 : 0)) * _dayBoxWidth, 
                        _offsetY + row * _dayBoxHeight, 
                        _dayBoxWidth, 
                        _dayBoxHeight);

                    graphics.FillRectangle(selectionBrush, currentDayRectangle); 
                }

                TextRenderer.DrawText(
                    graphics, 
                    current.Day.ToString(), 
                    Font, 
                    currentDayRectangle, 
                    System.Drawing.SystemColors.ActiveCaptionText, 
                    TextFormatFlags.HorizontalCenter | TextFormatFlags.VerticalCenter);

                if (current == this.TodayDate)
                {
                    currentDayFrame = currentDayRectangle;
                }

                current = current.AddDays(1);
            }

            if (currentDayFrame.X > 0)
            {
                graphics.DrawRectangle(new Pen(
                    new SolidBrush(Color.Red)), currentDayFrame);
            }

            _repaintSelectedDays = false;
        }
    }
}

Вот версия, которая работает, когда отображается более одного месяца (CalendarDimensions! = (1,1)), а также исправляет некоторые другие проблемы:

Мое тестирование показывает, что в Windows 7 нет проблемы с рисованием, и я ожидаю, что и в Vista нет, так что это попытка исправить только Windows XP.

Я обнаружил небольшую проблему в приведенном выше коде Марка Крэннесса: в системах XP, в которых визуальные стили полностью отключены, Application.RenderWithVisualStyles затем устанавливается в значение False, даже когда вызывается Application.EnableVisualStyles ().

Таким образом, пользовательский код рисования в этом случае вообще не запускается. Чтобы исправить это, я изменил первую строку конструктора FixVisualStylesMonthCalendar на

if (Application.VisualStyleState != System.Windows.Forms.VisualStyles.VisualStyleState.NoneEnabled && 
            Environment.OSVersion.Version < new Version(6, 0))

Весь код находится внизу этого ответа.

Я не нашел способа прокомментировать сам ответ. Кредиты для приведенного ниже кода переходят к исходному автору - (если он или кто-либо может проверить этот ответ и обновить его, я был бы счастлив удалить этот)
