Cues while moving/resizing controls

I'm working in a control base for moveable resizeable controls at
runtime.

What is a good way to implement the hatched (ControlPaint) "got focus"
border around the outside border of the control, as well as the
resize-squares on this border? I got some ideas (like having a panel
underneath with Paint overridden), but rather not reinvent wheels if
there is an easier way.

Thanks!

I have an application in which I need to expose runtime moving and resizing of controls. Most of the functionality that I need is exposed by the CRectTracker class in the C++ library. Are there any code samples or tutorials for calling a managed C++ from C#? Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Newsgroup, I try to resize and move a picturebox. However, after each operation the picture box is being redrawn. This causes flickering.

It seems kind of strange that if a Form is just moved that Resize events fire. This makes it hard to tell the difference betweeen resizing and moving a Form. I can understand why resizing might also be considered a move (since the Form's location can be thought to be based on one from Top/Bottom and one from Left/Right, and some of these...
