HELP: Allowing a user to design the layout of form

ER
Hi There

I am looking for some pointers on the best way to allow a user to modify the
layout and components of a form. They would be able to add buttons and
change the position, color etc.

Preferably some pointers for WPF.

Thanks

Check out "DesignSurface". You can start here (download his
"DesignModeDialog" sample component):

It doesn't do WPF, but DevExpress's XtraLayoutControl is very good. Here:

Please note that I work for them.
