Raster drawing tool...

[lidds]

Can anyone help, I am looking for a raster drawing tool that will allow me to draw line, text, rectangles, balloons, free hand draw etc but with the added ability to be able to select the items drawn and manipulate them after placement e.g. move, resize, change length size etc.

Does anyone know of a third party control that will allow this, I have been looking on the net for sometime and the controls that are able to do this are $600 and upwards due to the fact they have a huge amount of extra tools which I do not require.

What I really want to do is do simular tasks as in Snagit 8 Editor

Thanks

Simon

You wrote that you are looking for a drawing tool.

Check out our MetaDraw component.
Truth in advertising - I'm writing as the publisher
of this component, so I'm biased
but I believe this will meet your needs as you
described them.

It is for Vector based drawing but the items and features
you mention that you want in drawing tool are really
vector based ( especially being able to select and then
modify drawn elements ).
MetaDraw is $500 ( so it is under the cost of items you have
looked at ) and it is Reliable and supported .

For more information go to www.MetaDraw.com
If you have any questions - post to the support page of our web site.
and please do reference this post.
