[RESOLVED] Manifest XP Style Problems

[TupacShakur]

Hey y'all,

I only started using the manifest file technique for displaying XP style controls few days ago, as i wasnt very keen for the xp style, but most people are..

Anyways, 2 problems i faced were:

- Lots of flickering. When i move the mouse around the controls, flickering reaches crazy levels. What is this due to?? And is there anyway it can be more professional?


- Another problem i faced was the focus of the controls. What i mean is that the dotted rectangle that should appear on the controls when i am moving the focus around with the tab key, is simply not appearing. I tried "pure" XP apps, and there seems to be normal focus there (different than win9x, true, but it's dotted and it's there!!).. This problem is at worst for check boxes and option buttons. For regular buttons, there seems to be some kind of a color change on the borders (which is normal, but still missing the dotted focus rect.), so it's "acceptable" for buttons.. But for the other controls, it's horrible.

Any ideas on this matter, and how to solve it??


Thanks .
