It's probably preferable to render images using a set of formulae, since
this scales well compared to a bitmap picture.

Is there any open source library that reads vector graphics and can convert this to an image? This should be the ultimate solution.

One button is probably preferable since it would work on exported PNG
images as well.

This is a point, but I'm not sure whether this is more important than an easy UI. Besides, those extra buttons could be drawn outside of CalculateArea() and thus shouldn't appear in PNG export.
