Currently I'm working on a Windows application (C#) where I'll need to
create controls, like VU Meter, Sine Meter, switches, etc. What's the
best technology to use to create those controls? Is GDI+ good for it?
Also I'm looking into possibility of buying such controls. Can
someone send me into the right direction?
Thanks,

Thanks guys for your reply.
As far as do it yourself, is GDI+ would be the right technology to use
to implement those types of controls? Do you know any good tutorials on
the web or a book that would be helpful for this matter?
Thanks,

Hello br*******@yahoo.com,
yep, GDI+ is good, see samles and tutorials here http://www.codeproject.com/cs/media/#GDI%2B
BTW, If u are only startind learinig this kind of stuff, I recoment to look
at XAML (Windows Presentation Framework), it's new UI that will be in Vista.
There are several books for XAML and you can download WinFX to try to use it Thanks guys for your reply.
