Moving an overlay which was created programmatically

[Steverino]

I created an overlay on an image using the following function:

CWIMAQViewer1.Image.Overlays(1).DrawRectangle rRect, cwimaqOverlayModeFrame, vbBlue

I would like to have the user "grab" the rectangle with the mouse and reposition it on the image where he wants it to be.

Can this be done?

Thanks!

Steverino -

Sure!  To let the user interact with the rectangle, you have to make it part of the viewer region instead of an overlay, like

CWIMAQViewer1.Regions.DefaultRegionColor = vbBlue
CWIMAQViewer1.Regions.AddRectangle rrect
CWIMAQViewer1.Tool = cwimaqToolSelection
