CommonControls (Replacement of the MS common controls)

[Krool]

If using the properties "BackColor" or "ForeColor", control is refreshed even if "Redraw" = False.

Done. Thanks.

Improved version for the demo that shows of how to make the ToolBar control accessible per shortcut key on a MDIForm.

Just the following If statement has been included in the hook procedure: ('Me' is the MDI form)

If GetActiveWindow() = Me.hWnd Then

As WH_KEYBOARD_LL is a global hook the shortcut keys for the ToolBar were accessible from foreign processes, e.g. from the MS notepad.
And that is definitive not wanted..

The API GetActiveWindow() is perfect for this check, as:
- It will return 0 if the actual window is in a foreign process and not from within the calling thread.
- If an MDI form is active it returns always the main MDI form, even when a MDI Child form is actual active. (unlike Screen.ActiveForm, which would return the actual MDI Child form)

in the ocx version 1.2 I could load a picture from an IPictureDisp into The ImageList and then create the toolbar from it in code.

Using OCX version 1.3 this does not work Am I missing anything?

Dim tbb As VBCCR13.TbrButton, pic as IPictureDisp
 
''pic.Image = loadpicture from file or resource
 
Imagelist1.ListImages.Add(1, "key",  pic.Image) 
 
ToolBar.ImageList = ImageList1  
 
Set tbb = ToolBar1.Buttons.Add(, "ButtonKey")
tbb.Description = b.Description
tbb.Enabled = b.Enabled
tbb.MixedState = b.MixedState
tbb.Image = 1

Hello,

I also found this "bug".
In "ImageList" , if "ImageWidth" <> 0 or "ImageHeiht" <> 0 AND the collection "ImageList" is empty, the addition does not work and without error.

I think the solution would be to slightly modify the ImagesList.FListImagesAdd () routine

Friend Sub FListImagesAdd(Optional ByVal Index As Long, _
                          Optional ByVal Picture As IPictureDisp)
Dim ImageListIndex As Long

    If Index = 0 Then
        ImageListIndex = Me.ListImages.Count + 1
    Else
        ImageListIndex = Index
    End If

    If Picture Is Nothing Then
        Err.Raise Number:=35607, Description:="Required argument is missing"
    ElseIf Picture.Handle = 0 Then
        Err.Raise Number:=35607, Description:="Required argument is missing"
    Else
        If ImageListHandle = 0 Or Me.ListImages.Count=0 Then
            If PropImageWidth = 0 Then PropImageWidth = UserControl.ScaleX(Picture.Width, vbHimetric, vbPixels)
            If PropImageHeight = 0 Then PropImageHeight = UserControl.ScaleY(Picture.Height, vbHimetric, vbPixels)
            If ImageListHandle = 0 Then Call CreateImageList
        End If

Or think of putting ImageWidth AND ImageHeiht to 0 BEFORE adding the first image.

Ok, good suggestion, it worked.
I set ImageWidth and ImageHeight to 0, but once I added the images, I could no longer set the ImageWidth and ImageHeight property, because of the following error
Property is read-only if image list contains images

so I commented out the two lines of code and it works...

           .ListImages.Add(1, "key",  pic.Image) 
    End With
    ToolBar.ImageList = ImageList1  
     
    Set tbb = ToolBar1.Buttons.Add(, "ButtonKey")
    tbb.Description = b.Description
    tbb.Enabled = b.Enabled
    tbb.MixedState = b.MixedState
    tbb.Image = 1

[Krool]

I don't understand what you mean is a "bug" with the ImageList.

If the ImageWidth and/or ImageHeight is 0 it will be set automatically while loading the first image.

    If ImageListHandle = 0 And (PropImageWidth = 0 Or PropImageHeight = 0) Then
        If PropImageWidth = 0 Then PropImageWidth = UserControl.ScaleX(Picture.Width, vbHimetric, vbPixels)
        If PropImageHeight = 0 Then PropImageHeight = UserControl.ScaleY(Picture.Height, vbHimetric, vbPixels)
        Call CreateImageList
    End If

ImageListHandle = 0 means that a handle could not be created because either ImageWidth or ImageHeight is 0.
So there is no need to check if the Collection is empty because it is not possible to have the collection not empty and handle of <> 0.

What I tested now again is following:
I have the ImageHeight and ImageWidth set to both 16 pixels.
If I load now the first picture with 16x16 it works, no problem.
Even when I load a picture with 32x32 it works, it just gets "scaled".
So having ImageHeight and/or ImageWidth of 0 is just a convenience to retrieve the dimension from the first picture.
Later it is of course not possible to set ImageHeight and/or ImageWidth to 0 when pictures are already loaded.

So in my tests there is no such "bug".

the problem is when populating the ImageList and Toolbar at runtime

Dim tbb As VBCCR13.TbrButton, pic as IPictureDisp

''pic.Image = load picture from file, resource or propertybag

Imagelist1.ListImages.Add(1, "key",  pic.Image) 

ToolBar.ImageList = ImageList1  
Set tbb = ToolBar1.Buttons.Add(, "ButtonKey")
tbb.Description = b.Description
tbb.Enabled = b.Enabled
tbb.MixedState = b.MixedState
tbb.Image = 1

if ImageHeight and/or ImageWidth is not 0 then the toolbar button won't show the picture
the problem only exist in version 13 of the ocx not in 12

[Krool]

Can you please provide a demo showing the issue?
Is this "bug" also in the Std-EXE version?
Thanks

[lrd_VB6]

Hello

I have a small test program that highlights the "bug" (problem)
The buttons "ImageSize" sets the size of the empty ImageList to 0 or 16
"Test 1" creates a imageList The TreeView without imposing size.
"Test 2" creates a imageList The TreeView by imposing a size size.

THE TEST

1. Start program
2. Click ImageSize = 0
3. Click "Test2" before "Test1" or "Test1" before "Test2"

or

1. Start program
2. Click ImageSize = 16
3. Click "Test2" before "Test1" or "Test1" before "Test2"

Following the order of tests, the message "ListImages is Nothing" appears.

This comes from the ImageList that was not created (ImageListHandle = 0) but without error when creating.

Another question.
The TreeView Version 13 "seems" slower than version 11. Is that normal?

Update released. (VBCCR13.OCX and Std-EXE)
Thank you!
I changed the code now to the following:

    If ImageListHandle = 0 Or (PropImageWidth = 0 Or PropImageHeight = 0) Then
        If PropImageWidth = 0 Then PropImageWidth = UserControl.ScaleX(Picture.Width, vbHimetric, vbPixels)
        If PropImageHeight = 0 Then PropImageHeight = UserControl.ScaleY(Picture.Height, vbHimetric, vbPixels)
        If ImageListHandle = 0 Then Call CreateImageList
    End If

Another question.
The TreeView Version 13 "seems" slower than version 11. Is that normal?

This could be due to the extra overhead for the 'Variant' .Image property.
Is it also slower when not using the .Image property?

[lrd_VB6]

Hello,

happy to have made the project forward.

Another little detail to "tease"
In the following code:

If ImageListHandle = 0 Or (PropImageWidth = 0 Or PropImageHeight = 0) Then
        If PropImageWidth = 0 Then PropImageWidth = UserControl.ScaleX(Picture.Width, vbHimetric, vbPixels)
        If PropImageHeight = 0 Then PropImageHeight = UserControl.ScaleY(Picture.Height, vbHimetric, vbPixels)
        If ImageListHandle = 0 Then Call CreateImageList
End If

The first test is unnecessary.

By cons, it is important to leave last
If ImageListHandle = 0 Then Call CreateImageList

Last, I'd like able to benefit from your internal routines to implement the subclassing by the method of your choice (usercontrol, class or other)
To manage the mouse wheel by example.

Good luck and thank you for your work.

Done. Thanks.

I also did another "tease". In the .ImageWidth and .ImageHeight property I replaced

If ImageListHandle <> 0 Then
    Call DestroyImageList
    Call CreateImageList
End If

with this

If ImageListHandle <> 0 Then Call DestroyImageList
If ImageListHandle = 0 Then Call CreateImageList

This ensures that the .hImageList will be valid when setting both .ImageWidth and .ImageHeight > 0.
For the moment this was only the case when setting at design-time. Now it is the same at run-time.
This can be important when setting the ImageList to a .ImageList property of a control prior loading the images!
Anyhow, now it should be perfect and cover all cases.

Last, I'd like able to benefit from your internal routines to implement the subclassing by the method of your choice (usercontrol, class or other)
To manage the mouse wheel by example.

Please explain in more detail.

General question put in the room:
Is there any need to make a lightweight ActiveX version?
Would be named VBCCR13L.OCX
If yes, which controls to exclude?

[Elroy]

My vote would be a huge NO! A HUGE advantage of what you've done is to allow someone to make a registration-free VB6 program.

If you're just looking for more to do, add a Column Headers Property Page to the Listview control, or add the tabctl32.ocx (SSTab) to the list of what you've covered.

If you included the SSTab, I could go totally registration-free, with no SxS stuff on my primary project, which would be wonderful.

IDK, just my humble opinion, but I see the whole advantage of the wonderful work you've done is being able to wrap everything up into a single project.

Best Regards,
Elroy

[Krool]

@Elroy, I was talking about the .OCX and not the Std-EXE.

The package of Std-EXE would remain full as you can pick what you actually need.
For the OCX is different, you know?

Thats why I want to know if there is a need to make a lightweight ActiveX version.(VBCCR13L.OCX)

[Elroy]

Oh yes, in years past, I've done my own OCX compiles. However, these days, I just tend to pull the source code of my custom controls into whatever project I'm working on.

It just seems that, if someone were going to go "back" to an OCX, they'd just use the one from Microsoft. However, I do realize that you're offering some features that aren't in the original Microsoft controls.

If you're like me, you're just possibly looking for a way to do some further work on this project. I also know that it's most fun for me if it's some idea I've thought up on my own. But just to gently set it on the table, having this for the SSTab control would be wildly cool IMHO. Regarding the Column Headers Property Page, I could do that pretty easily myself if I really wanted it.

I do hope you continue with the joy of coding in VB6, whatever that may involved.

Regards,
Elroy

[jpskiller]

I agree I don't see any real need to make a lightweight OCX as you can pick the controls from the std package if wish, (and I like the ability to use the OCX side by side with no registration) my wish list is as above is a SStab replacement and a really good grid control like LynxGrid (development stopped long ago).

I am only a novice programmer but use these controls all the time, due to my programs having to run on WYSE terminals which don't allow me to register anything.

The exe where getting very large 2mb+ but now I have got the side by side OCX working its great and keeps the exe size down.

Its true. Actually it doesnt matter nowadays if a OCX is 4.6MB or only 2MB. And it would be difficult to find the best mix for such a lightweight OCX.

Concerning the grid replacement. I need also such an replacement, so I am developing a MSFlexGrid replacement. It will replace it completely, though the MSHFlexGrid will be replaced only partially as I don't think I will implement bands. Of course all known bugs and limitations (e.g. lack of mouse wheel support, cell limit, etc.) will be away.
But this will be in a separate project. It will not be included in this project as it is too big.

For SSTab. To be honest, I dont know much of it and what is the advantage over the TabStrip control?

[chosk]

The main different to a user is every tab of the SSTab is a container by itself. During design mode, you can put controls in the tabs. Unlike TabStrip where you need to have another container - usually picture box. During runtime, have to resize the picturebox when the TabStrip is resized. Don't have to do this with SSTab.

The downside is that SSTab is not themed, so it can look out of place when the other controls are themed.

Edited later to add:
In VB.NET, the tabs in TabStrip are containers.

[Elroy]

I know I'm going to say stuff that'll keep Krool from ever seriously looking at the SSTab, but hey ho. Each tab actually isn't a container. The whole control is a container, but the individual tabs just have some interesting logic that moves the controls around. What it actually does is add and subtract 75000 twips from the control's left property to move it into and out of sight when the tabs are clicked.

I've actually got some code that'll switch the tab a control is on, and it has nothing to do with changing the control's container. I've actually previously posted these procedures in these forums.

The SSTab is also a bit buggy on one account (although, overall, I've found it to be quite bulletproof). The sole bug I've found is that, under certain circumstances, it'll let a control on a non-visible tab take the focus. So, when you're using the TAB-keyboard-key to change focus, the focus will appear to be in la-la-land. I've written a class that I instantiate and attach to each SSTab control that I use that corrects this bug.

I must say though, all in all, I do like the SSTab control a great deal.

Regards,
Elroy

[ishalom]

I have played around with the Std-EXE, and I still use your OCX (thank you).
as a user of your OCX, I can say that a lightweight one would not be necessary. It is great the way it is, and you are better of spending your time with the stuff the others have mentioned.

The SStab would also be great, as Elroy says the ms one is a bit (a lot) buggy (I have stopped using it a long time ago). but the idea of not needing a picture box for each tab and the need of moving it around during design time, would be great.

since I see others are using this space for requests I would like to add two of mine:
1) the vb controls have a RightToLeft Property, with your OCX I have to use window API, and on a form with a controls it's a bit messy.
Also the Label Control does not have an hWnd Property.
2) how about a PpropertyList, its not part of the MS Common Controls, but your are BETTER....

this is the code used for RightToLeft

Private Declare Function GetWindowLong Lib "User32" Alias "GetWindowLongA" (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function SetWindowLong Lib "User32" Alias "SetWindowLongA" (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long, ByVal dwNewLong As Long) As Long
Private Const WS_EX_RIGHT = &H1000&
Private Const WS_EX_RTLREADING = &H2000&
Private Const WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL = &H400000
Private Const WS_EX_LEFTSCROLLBAR = &H4000&
Private Const GWL_EXSTYLE = (-20)

Private Const GWL_STYLE = (-16)
Private Const WS_EX_NOINHERITLAYOUT = &H100000

Public Sub SetRTLControl(hwnd As Long)
Dim l As Long
l = GetWindowLong(hwnd, GWL_EXSTYLE)
l = l Or WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL
l = SetWindowLong(hwnd, GWL_EXSTYLE, l)

End Sub

[Karl77]

The original SSTab has also problems on multi-monitor systems.
I gave up on it years ago as well.

The major advantage of SSTab over the TabStrip is the easy handling at design time.
And at runtime, it makes things easier as well.

I like the idea of a STTab replacement.

Lightweight OCX: I can't imagine a single reason for it.

[Elroy]

Hey Karl,

I virtually never sit down at a computer these days that doesn't have at least two monitors on it. One of my home development computers has three, but my primary one only has two. Also, virtually all of my clients these days have primary workstations with two monitors. In my primary application, I've even worked out procedures for shoving forms to the second monitor, specifically so they can view two things at once while working within the application, and the SSTab is frequently on one (if not both) of these forms.

I'm just wondering what multi-monitor problems you've seen with the SSTab control.

And yes, I suppose it is the "coolness" of IDE design-time development that attracts me to the control. I just love being able to click the tabs and redesign one of the tab/pages while in the IDE.

Regards,
Elroy

p.s. Regarding multiple monitors, I'm starting to think we've all gone the wrong direction, except possibly for some specific applications. My next system is going to have a 4k Ultra HD video card in it, with a single 4k Ultra HD monitor that's somewhere in the neighborhood of 40" diagonal. That way, I can put forms and windows wherever I darn well please.

[Karl77]

Hello Elroy,

OT:

Regarding monitor usage, it seems we both have the same conditions.

I'm just wondering what multi-monitor problems you've seen with the SSTab control.

Don't remember exactly, it is too long ago.
I think the problems occurred with negative screen coordinates, then the click onto a tab didn't work.

BTW, problems with negative screen coordinates can be found e.g. in the comctl32 treeview.
The NodeClick events doesn't work in this case.

Because Visual Styles were not possible with SSTAB, I gave up when XP came out.

That way, I can put forms and windows wherever I darn well please.

Not sure.
I had the same idea, but...
With such sizes, the eye-screen distance is too different, upper left is further away than bottom left - problem for me.
Next is, the single pixel is very small, and doing pixel-fine work is even harder than with standard monitors.
And the quality of the cheaper ones is not so very super, I don't want to spend much more than 1000 for such a monitor.
Last is, a 40" display is virtually 4 standard displays - and a 20" monitor is quite small.

But I must confess, I didn't try a 40" 4K setup in reality.
Now I use 3x 26" 1920x1200.
I wait until a monitor dies.

Karl

[Karl77]

Hi Elroy,

I'm just wondering what multi-monitor problems you've seen with the SSTab control.

From your own other post:

and I've found that the SSTab control's size gets totally confused when DPI isn't set to precisely 96 DPI.

So it doesn't matter which problems I experienced in the past.
Non-DPI-aware is a killer anyway.

Krool's controls ARE DPI aware.
Better than the originals, really.
Perhaps someday he is bored and creates an SSTAB replacement.


Karl

[Elroy]

Hi Karl,

Well, to date, I've insisted that my clients always set their monitors to 96 DPI, so I have no problems. If they want things bigger, they just use screen resolution (with the accompanying fuzziness). As suggested in another thread, I know I've got to bite-the-bullet on this quite soon. I've played with it some, and found that the SSTab control is particularly problematic. I think the solution is just to "take charge" of its size (as well as the size of all the controls it contains, and the controls nested on containers on its tabs). Arghh. It's just not something I'm looking forward to.

Regards,
Elroy

[Tech99]

Tested briefly Listview control, but seems that it does allow editing only in first column? Likewise when FullRowSelect is set to False, it does not allow focus/selection in to other columns.

Listview has an another quirk... Try to drag some item in Listview3 upwards, works ok - but dragging item downwards, it pushes all items 'front' of it downwards, not just jump over as it should.

I am experimenting to create a Windows 10 style Hamburger Menu using OptionButtons as menu. How can I remove the round circle thing on the left so that only the caption show? I am using OptionButtons instead of Labels because I can vertical-center the caption.

Thanks.

Edit:
I think I use a Label and vertical center the caption manually. It also doesn't have the selected rectangle that makes it more suitable.

Hi Krool,

I am not sure whether I can or should ask you to include features in the LabelW control to align caption vertically. And also for a MouseOver event or something where when the mouse is over it, we can use the event to change the backcolor and change back when it leaves. This will make the label usable as a button to make the app adopt the Windows 10 look.

Right now, I have to insert a vbCrLf to push the caption down but then I will need to make the Label very tall. I also use MouseMove on the LabelW and also the form (and any other controls) to revert the LabelW backcolor back to non-hover color. This create a lot of flicker.

I attach a screen hot of my demo against the Windows 10 Money app for comparision.

[chosk]

I intend to use this also in Windows 7 by making the form without caption and border and creating my own caption bar. The Seogoe MDL2 Assets font can be downloaded and installed in Windows 7 from the link the lower choice option with the captcha:

    LabelW1.Font.Name = "Segoe MDL2 Assets"

    LabelW0.Font.Size = 14
    LabelW1.Font.Size = 14
    LabelW2.Font.Size = 14
    LabelW3.Font.Size = 14
    
    LabelW0.Caption = vbCrLf & Space(4) & ChrW$(&HE700)
    LabelW1.Caption = vbCrLf & Space(4) & ChrW$(&HE80F) & Space(5) & "Home"
    LabelW2.Caption = vbCrLf & Space(4) & ChrW$(&HE160) & Space(5) & "New"
    LabelW3.Caption = vbCrLf & Space(4) & ChrW$(&HE713) & Space(5) & "Settings"
    
End Sub
