Okay... here is my crude resize handles using the canvas.
I can easily show or hide the handles & marquee when clicking on/off object.
I need to clean it up, but good enough for now.
Issues...
1) This is drawn on a canvas on the form. So, if I had multiple objects that overlapped, an object could cover the canvas drawing. This would be a problem.
2) How do I go about hovering and dragging a "painted object" that isn't actually there.
Well, its a start.... still learning how to do this.
