Analyzing User Interface Needs

During the requirements analysis, we have identified a number of attributes that are user-customizable. Obviously, users must enter the text to be rendered in addition to selecting font, color, and orientation. The easiest way to collect all this information is through a Windows Form. This form can combine all inputs for the 3D text feature by providing controls for text, font, color, positions, and rotation. Figure 9.1 shows the desired layout for this form.

.NET provides access to Windows common dialogs for selecting a font and picking a color. These dialogs, shown in Figure 9.2, can be invoked by pressing the corresponding button on the 3D text form.
