In my previous post, I introduced the calculators, color pickers and password box editor controls that will be released in v2010.2 as part of the DXEditors library for both WPF and Silverlight.
Today, I’ll present two new image editor controls that are designed to allow you to quickly load and display images. To reiterate, these controls will also be available for WPF as well as Silverlight.
The standalone image editor (ImageEdit):
Image displayed within a dropdown window (PopupImageEdit):
Both image editor controls include the following features:
- Supported Image Formats – Bitmap, JPEG, GIF and PNG.
- Configurable Image Size – An image can be resized to fill the image box, stretched or shrunk to fit the size of the box.
- Built-in Menu –end-users can cut, copy, paste, delete, load or save an image. It’s also possible to remove the default commands and/or add custom commands. This menu is automatically shown when the mouse pointer enters the image, and is automatically hidden when the mouse pointer leaves the image.
- Easy Image Loading – clicking within an image editor shows the Open dialog allowing you to select and load an image file.
- Auto-Sizing Image Popup – if the size of an image is smaller than the size of an editor’s popup window, the image popup is automatically resized to fit the image size.
- Localizable UI
