Creating Images on Different Layers
-
Hello All, My windows form application which allows users to import, edit, and save images works for the most part. However, it lacks many features that I would like to have but I have no idea on how to go about creating them. On top of the list of features I'd like to have is the ability to create images on separate layers. Right now I can put paint on top of an image or lay one image on top of another image but once I do that I can not separate them since they are on the same layer. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated thanks in advance.

You would need to store each layer as a separate entity. When your persisted "image file" is read by your app, it should render the layers in order. In practice, every layer object will have its own properties (e.g. opacity, visibility, etc.) /ravi

You should move to WPF. WPF already implements all this for you.
