Line Drawing

Does anyone know of some simple line drawing add-on apps. I just need to be
able to do some simple line drawing with dims. 4 walls and a door and allow
the user to type the dims for the walls. All simple.

Thanks
MAtt

You might consider an alternative to rendering shapes yourself.

Create the necessary Line/Box/Whatever shapes using the native Access
drawing tools.
Use code to move and resize the controls as per the user's input.

In this manner, you are simply saving off the users input instead of a
Bitmap drawing. See the user interface to the ReportUtiliitie s on my site
for a similiar solution to what you need to produce.

I'm making a 'whiteboard' application. I'm trying to have 2+ connected users able to draw at the same time. However, if User1 draws a line, when User2 is drawing, on User1 screen, it will draw another line, connecting User1's, and User2's current X,Y position. Same thing happens with User2. But User3, and User4 is not drawing, and see the lines drawn individually.

I am looking for a solution to add on-line drawing tool to a phpBB discussion board. The idea would be that the users can draw their own simple drawings with the tool and attach them easily as images in the discussion. The idea is to easily add small drawings to the postings. The drawign tool should be easy to use and learn. It should be easily integrate to the phpBB system.

I tried searching the newsgroups to see how do you draw a dotted line but I was unable to find an answer, drawing a straight line is very easy but not a dotted one. So the question is, how do I draw a dotted line? Thank you.

I want to know if the mouse is over (hitting) a line. Therefore I created a Region object that holds the line and use the IsVisible() method to test if the mouse hits the line. It doesn't work! In the little program below I create two Regions: one is square, the other is a line. Hit testing works on the square-Region, not on the line-Region. How can I do a hit-test over a line? //namespace HitTest namespace HitTest

I try to define a line with the length of 1 unit (1 pixel) that is, in fact, just a point on the screen. But when I draw it with a wide pen with the appropriate StartCap and EndCap (Round), it will appear as a dot. I can think of a way to define a 1-pixel long line but it is ugly and clumsy. I subtract .5 from the given pixel's X and Y coordinate for the first System.Drawing.PointF structure, and add .5 to the other PointF stucture. It...
