Original issue 1911 created by webyog on 2013-02-08T06:36:52.000Z:
This request appears from time to time. Last time in ticket 163103.
Actual request is drawing tools in the canvas'es. Earlier we have had requests for setting background color (including gradients), for adding text (like 'revision 11.7: date: dddd-mm-year'), importing bitmaps and similar.
After discussion it seems that it can be done with the Windows API to add options similar to what Windows standard program 'Paint' has. There is also an option to use OpenGL for even more advanced implementation (layers , transparency etc.). Another reference could be Access report generator GUI.
One concern is if once an object is added, it should ideally be possible to select and modify it after another object has been added (what is not possible in Paint for instance, but is in more advanced drawings tools).
There is also a discussion about the vector (?) format to use for drawn objects. Should it be compatible to SVG graphics, standard programs like Inkscape or whatever?
