Crystal Image Toolkit for C# Windows Forms: 1.0.1 Release for Visual Studio 2010, .NET Framework 4.0


Crystal Picture Show Demo
Regrettably, I haven't made any updates on the Crystal Image Toolkit for a long while.  After WPF and XAML applications took the lead in graphical user interfaces, I lost some of my motivation to keep on improving the toolkit.  However, there are still plenty of Windows Forms applications out there and I am getting ready to produce some new tools in this area myself. 

I've updated the source code for all the toolkit and the demos to Visual Studio 2010 and .NET Framework 4.0.  A couple of minor bug fixes are included along with some code cleanup courtesy of ReSharper. 

You might ask: why .NET Framework 4 instead of .NET Framework 4 client profile?  Because I used log4net in the Crystal Toolkit, this would not compile under the .NET 4.0 Client profile.  It requires the full .NET 4.0 package.  See Tseo's blog for more details.

Visit the new SourceForge page for the Crystal Image Toolkit.  You can download the 1.0.1. version there and any new updates in the future.

  1. How do I reset/remove all pictures from a CrystalImageGridView control?

  2. You can call ClearModel in the collector class. Take a look at the demos, usually in the Form1 class you will see:

    _theCollector.PurgeImages();

    This will clear the images from the Model, and the Model will update the view to display an empty window.
