I'm making a graphics heavy program, and I need to allow the user to click
on an image or block of text to select it, drag it around a page, and resize
it if necessary. Rather like the Windows forms designer. I haven't the
slightest idea how best to do the resizing handles, and moving the images
around.

I've been searching and mucking about with inheriting from Control to make a
container for the images and text for a couple days now and not making much
headway. Any ideas how to start, or advice would be great.

TIA

have you seen this article?

they do a lot of what you are talking about. I found the code
confusing, myself, but it might give you some ideas.

p.s. i'd be curious what you come up with. I've been wanting to add
the functionality of zoom & pan to an image viewer I wrote.
