CEETRON Envision with Windows Forms

CEETRON Envision has (on Windows) a built-in support for Win32 apps. This is implemented by the Win Component. The same component is used for Win32, MFC, Windows Forms and WPF.

See the topic C# Users: Features and Differences for tips on how to use CEETRON Envision and this documentation with C#/.NET

Creating a Viewer

All CEETRON Envision apps needs a viewer in order to visualize the 3D data. Windows Forms uses the ViewerWin32 found in the Win Component.

For integration towards Windows Forms, you create your own UserControl and implement paint, mouse and other event handling towards CEETRON Envision. A functional viewer with full code is provided in the WinFormsMinimal example. The WinFormsDemoApp offers more advanced integration features (like selection and rubberband).
