Windows XP Style On any platform !!! (need feedback guys Pls)

[rudvs2]

Hi guys I need to test out a demo app I have to see if it is working on any platform

The Xp controls source code was not created by me. However I have modified and compilied them.

Also found a realy cool fade routine check it out and give me some feed back guys thanks

PS. The controls are included in the zip file so you can compile and run the demo

[rudvs2]

oops the zip was too big here is the OCX's you will need

The Xp controls source code was not created by me. However I have modified and compilied them

where did you find it, any other controls available?

[da_silvy]

That works great, but i get an error when i press show form 2

[da_silvy]

Also, it won't get rid of the pink bits in the top right and left hand corners?

[rudvs2]

Umm im not sure whats wrong with form 2 form 2 for you da_ silvy

I do know about the pink bits and i will work on getting rid of them

at the moment I am working on an xp textbox control with custom scroll bars a search and replace function and also providing a line and char count property and a goto line function

[fbokker]

I have also the problem with the pink bits, they also show up on your sample picture, rudv2.
I think, you have your sourcecode for the controls from
http://www.planetsourcecode.com/xq/A...s/ShowCode.htm

got that code now and read a bit around in it. the user control xp_canvas uses a function called AutoFormShape that is supposed to remove this pink bits. But for some reason I don't understand, it does not do so. at least on my computer! someone else a clue?

[rudvs2]

Bang on fokker thats where i got it from

Umm One of the reasons i posted the form fade routine is becuase i was playing with the concept of using that function to hide the pick bits

I think if I somehow make it fade the actual form but leve the picturebox that overlays the form opaque it should work

I havnt had time to finish messing around with it (work) but i am hoping to carry on playing with it this weekend

[da_silvy]

bah, i can't get it to work
