2D Vector Graphics in VB-5: recommendations?
Hi all,
Sorry if this question has been asked a zillion times, but I'm new to
this.
I need to develop a small application where I need to draw vector
graphics
(points, lines, polygons), and provide the basic functionality of a
drawing
package (selecting, moving, deleting, resizing, changing attributes...)
I'm looking for something better than the graphic primitives, either
some
pre-built controls or subs. I saw some nice things in www.activex.com,
but
I have no funds to buy more software (this will be the only project I
intend
to develop).
I'd appreciate your comments and pointers, such as free code/controls,
web sites,
even books. This will be my first try with VB, so I'm not familiar with
the good sources.
I did something similar using C and X-Windows (Xlib) 10 years ago, so I
know how
painful it is to start graphics from scratch.
Thanks,
Dalmo
