C# Code 

As you can see, it’s easily adaptable in to a function for ‘universal painting of text on to Glass, although notable is the fact that if the pane is taken ‘off screen’ then the text will need to be redrawn, and a glass area can only be drawn to if it is currently visible.

Enjoy,

Chris
note: Cheers to a couple of guys who blog on MSDN for some of the code
