I'm looking at moving away from our custom designed GDI graphics and toward DirectX for a simple display surface that does two things:
1. Display a bmp quickly
2. Display colored points on the bitmap
3. Display rectangles on the bitmap
Seems easy but I haven't had time to look into Managed DirectX and while we only want 2D drawing (with multiple layers) it seems DirectDraw is depreciated and 3D turned 2D is our only hope.
Does anyone know of an easy drawing surface that would work for our needs. A simply dll with a DirectX drawing surface that can display a bmp and points and rectangles?
