well..i was thinkin about making a statusbar that when i clicked in one of the tabs it was like a combobox...i though maybe as status bar panels are owner drawn i could do this by someway puting in some way the combobox in the place of the status bar i could do this but it seems like the statusbar has a "always on top"...how do i do this then? or is it too hard?:confused:
Instead of trying to make a new statusbar, try making a new statusbar panel. Or is that what you are doing?
I don't know about sticking a combobox over top of it but the panels can be ownerdrawn. You could probably make a ComboPanel.
lol the status panel's event's must be done though the statusbar itself
Well I guess it doesn't really matter, but you can reach the events from the panel too. There is an Events collection that holds the delegates to the events of the statusbar or even easier is just referencing the panel's parent property to get the events of the statusbar. But it doesn't really matter, the panel the bar its all the same.
isn't a way of using gdi+ drawing the combo box there?
err...this sounded stupid..but it's just a question :P
