Menu Creating

cool!
that could save a few crashes.

This is my speciality.

I'll e-mail you one of my sample projects.

This is my speciality.

Hehe. Nice menu code, BTW.

[V(ery) Basic]

What was that?

I couldn't quite hear.

Could you say it a bit louder?

[parksie]

Your Office-style menu code.

[V(ery) Basic]

That's better.

Thank you

Hehehe...once I'd converted it back to VB5, though . I'm primitive and still on version 5...I download the alternate versions - my last was version 3!

[V(ery) Basic]

Doesn't it work in VB5? I don't know because I'm so up-to-date . The last VB I had was VB4 Learning Edition.

PS I like the new signature, pity about the joke


Just having you on.

Parksie:

LOL on the Sig!

but 1 twip is 1/15 of a pixel, not 15, hehee

[V(ery) Basic]

Nothing escapes this dennis-whizz kid

I hate Twips...
why cant VB just use pixels?
its a pain in the ass to keep changing it over to pixels,
because I like to have my command buttons 32x80 and my textboxes 20x200 which is a perfect size for me, but I always have to change the scalemode of the damn form...
and if I have more than 4 forms it really gets annoying, I wish there was a setting that keeps it all pixels for the whole project.
and i looked in the options dialog to see if I can change it permanently, I cant and that sucks

But when using twips you can be much more precise.

[parksie]

Changed the sig...happy now? Also, hypnos, yes it is more precise, but you'll only ever see changes of 1-pixel, because that is all you can see.

Very Happy


how can you be more precise when using twips??

if you go to Tools - > Options - > General
then turn align controls to grid off, when you move the controls(by selecting the control(s) and holding Ctrl and using the arrow keys(you can resize using shift and the arrow keys)) they move by 15 Twips, or 1 pixel, its the same distance, but Pixels are better, if MS would just keep VB in pixels API Calls would be much easier.... well not that much, but we wouldnt have to set the scalemode property to pixels anymore
