Personally I started with the winriver circular target sample and changed it to process rectangles.

Yes, from reading the manual it seems you can process in C++ or the DS dashboard. I presume though that running at the DS will introduce a delay while the images are streamed to the DS. As for sending the image you want to the dashboard, I'm not sure, because the dashboard seems to get an image even without code, so the DS seems to go directly to the camera. I'm using a crio II with a network switch. Not sure if that changes when you use the second ethernet port on the crio I.

I was playing with the vision 2011 and it seems there is a function to replicate everything you can do in vision, from C++. So it makes more sense to me to do it in C++ and save the overhead.

Hopes this helps.
