You use a transparent pen : wxTRANSPARENT_PEN
and a not transparent brush, for example : wxBLUE_BRUSH

For example to draw a blue rectangle with no border :

SetBrush(*wxBLUE_BRUSH);
SetPen(*wxTRANSPARENT_PEN);
DrawRectangle(x,y,x1,y1);

I can't find any method to let wxDC use a void pen.
Anyone can help me? Thanks.

use a "transparent" pen. One note of caution, previous versions would give
you a rectangle with a transparent border line, i.e. a rectangle that is one
linewidth (pixel?) smaller in each direction - I'm not sure if this got
changed in official version but we hacked our own copy to get full size
rectangles.

Well, the function is working ok for me. If you ask for a transparent pen,
it draw the line transparent !
Maybe we should create a real void pen with a size = 0.

It got changed in the official version and now you get full size rectangles.
