multi layer screen like photoshop in .Net

Question

Hello everybody

I want to write a utility that it works like Adobe Photoshop. if you work with this product, you meet a capability that we able to create a new layer and modify it easily. now i should write a code that draw a shape in run-time and insert several other shape with own Right-Click options.

I don't want specifically it, it should create a simple shape(it's a symbole e.g AND Gate) and control it.

what is your opinion?

OoOo, it written in C# 3.5

thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Paint.NET is an Open Source Photoshop-like program with layers written in C#.

You may want to start by looking there at the app and source code for ideas. You will also want to decide if you are creating vector-based or bitmap-based image editing app.

Good luck.
