Results for "Category: Custom Controls/ Forms/ Menus"
this took a little while to do, but the screenshot dosn't do it justice, i spent about 2 days on this and it is awsome, it will look exactly like an icq pop-up menu(if you right-click the description on the form you can see it), and it is also an easy way to add icons to menus, and to change the background and forecolor and highlight background/forecolors, this looks great and will be a part of my next app(GroupCode, which will be followed by AllCode - these two programs will have an opc client/server connection and i gaurantee you, they WILL change the way you program),i know that when a menu pops up it makes the parent form lose focus, if you have a way to fix this please help me and will post the updated code on psc and give you credit for the fix, please leave comments/bug reports/bug fixes/and votes
Here is a simple custom font dialog. Using the API EnumFontFamily, it finds all TrueType and Fixed width fonts. The font names are displayed, w/icon, in a listview. A slider control allows continuous scrolling of font size. A sample of the font at the selected size and style is displayed. A DrawFameOn routine is included which is used to frame all the controls (see screen shot).
This code shows three different samples of using low security password entry to a form. Yes this is quick, easy and some might think somewhat lame but for beginners these samples will be just fine and useful. It keeps prying eyes out of my stuff anyways. These code examples can easily be modified for more sophisticated routines. It just lays a basic foundation is all.

Wow.. talk about cool replicas. I used KR's Awards winning Gradient control for this code. A Custom Control that when placed on your form mimics the red swooshing light on the front of KITT, the car from Knight Rider. You can change the BackColor, ForeColor and the speed at which it swooshes.
This control will let you visually display Data in an easy to understand way.

Ok I didnt CREATE this but I did OPTIMIZE it and make it into a COMPLETE control, the gentelmen that made it slips my mind but it was like yesterday i think, anways using the VB accelerator ssubtmr.dll and this control allows you to LIMIT the form size of as MANY forms as you want in a single project. Its quite nice, give it a try! PLEASE VOTE! :O) UPDATED....... No Need for SSubTmr6.DLL I decided it would be ALOT easier for Newer guys to use this if they didnt have to worry about distributing a DLL so... I just sorta built the DLL Code into the Control.... ENJOY!!
This control automatically resize any controls on the form. You can set some properties to customize its behaviour, like resizing fonts or keeping aspect ratio. If you want to exclude some controls from resizing, just set TAG property to NO. You can import the control in your projects or compile it as a standalone OCX control. If you want to compile the control as a standalone OCX control, you have to set the Public property of the ActiveX project to TRUE)If you have questions, feel free to e-mail me. Now works with SSTAB control.
