HTML Renderer Project
Release 1.3.0.0

Everything you see on this panel is custom-painted by the HTML Renderer, including images and links.
Now you can have the rich format power of HTML on you desktop applications without WebBrowser control and MSHTML.
The library is 100% managed code without any external libraries dependencies.

The rendered html has full support for text selection including drag-and-drop and copy to clipboard of rich html and plain text to handle paste operation to editor that support rich or/and plain text.

The core layout engine of the renderer was builded according to CSS Level 2 specification, so you can use Cascading Style Sheets to format your html documents.
