Skinng Windows Form

[jakkjakk]

Skinning a windows form. Remember it's a visual trick. What you see isn't really what you think it actually is. If you look my little mp3 program's gui at www.sharpmp3.com.

There's a number of buttons, none of them of the circular nature. They look circular, but that's because the square area's blend in with the background. This was all done using the properties of the buttons themselves. I used photoshop to make the pictures of the buttons and some backgrounds but it's all pretty basic. Then I attached the pictures to the button fore and background pictures fields.

If you play around with the button settings and the control setting syou can get it to look the way you want.

Requires some finess to it.
