# WinFormsCT

### A new way to analyse the anatomy of a WinForms UI.

#### WinFormsCT will scan any form (`System.Windows.Forms.Form`) and all of its child controls recursively to generate a sliced-based height map.

* Out of a form like this ...

* ... WinFormsCT will detect each control, save a screen copy and collect additional meta data:

* With that, WinFormsCT is able to reconstruct a kind of "height map" for the all the controls of the same hierarchy levels and renders them into "slices" like any good computer tomographer would do.

* These slices can then be used to browse the form's control hierarchy interactively. Including some awesome effects with good old GDI+.

Why? Because I can.
