Best tool? Program to create enhanced slideshow.

[Steve Cato]

What is the best tool to achieve this in winforms? I want a program to create enhanced slideshows.

Each slide should allow an image via drag/drop plus other controls such as text fields.

I would like to be able to scroll thru to edit, as well as add or delete slides.

The ability to rearrange using drag/drop would also be good - though not absolutely essential

Any advice would be very helpful. Thanks.

Hi Steve Cato,

For your requirement, we recommend to go through the Winforms Carousel control. The Carousel control functions as a circular conveyor, displaying and rotating objects in a 3D interface with interactive navigation.

 

Kindly refer the following link :

Reference - About Windows Forms Carousel control | Syncfusion

 

Additionally, we are currently working on integrating the requested features into a single solution. We will need some time and will provide further updates by March 07, 2025.

Regards,

Rabina

Hi Steve Cato,

Syncfusion does not have a single control that meets all your requirements. However, we have prepared a demo that includes slideshow functionality with images, text fields, scrolling, and the ability to add or delete slides.

 

• FlowLayoutPanel: Used for arranging child controls in a flow-like layout, automatically wrapping them.
• Button: Used for triggering actions when clicked in slides as well as slide shows
• PictureBox: Used for displaying images in the UI in slides as well as slideshows
• TextBox: Used for user input in slide.
• Label: Used for displaying text in Slide show.

 

Please refer to the attached sample and video reference for a detailed implementation.

 

Let us know if you have any questions.

Regards,

Rabina

There isn't a single tool in Syncfusion that can do everything you need. We have, however, made a demo that shows how the slideshow works and lets you add or remove slides, as well as add pictures and text fields.
