Group annotations

Post by goldrian » Thu Jun 16, 2022 5:07 pm

Hi!

I need to create grouped annotations, like a cross formed by two lines.

I can create a cross by drawing two single lines, but then the two lines are selected and edited individually.
Is there a way to group them?

(I have to create also more complex things, like arrows + circles + rectangles)

Or is there a way to create a custom annotation, or override the edit methods?

Thanks!

Hi Goldrian,

Thank you for your question.

To group annotations you may want to create an entirely new annotation using the following method:

This would be the expected approach you should take.

I'd like to create CustomAnnotations but, to do so, I have to drop the Wpf version and encapsulate the Form version in a WindowsFormHost.
That's not my favorite solution, I have a bad experience of WIndowsFormHost, but since it's the only one I'm trying to stick to this.
