Here is my first submission since a "hacker" erased all the things of my repertoire. Il s'agit d'un contrôle.It is a gauge showing pressure in psi having as value source in kPa. (Because we use metric values at my work and because i still love imperial system) i made that Old Style Gauge.I tempted several manners to arrive at my purposes (almost the end), in the first place, a simple line for the needle, it did not seem real, then I had to draw a needle in three fragments to make her the smallest as possible and by using the method of SetPixel and GetPixel. The only problem is that there is a refreshment in every consequentive change...Test it and why not try to improve it... All the constructive messages are welcome.

Baloon tooltips for combobox and labels. Vb does not have a mousemove for a combobox. This code will display a baloon tooltip when over the text portion of a combobox. Also a tool tip on demand for long tooltips displays. Also includes the finger cursor.

These is an easy way to create your own ocx controls. Has a Flat Command and a Flat Combo Box you could use it to your advantage and create your own flat controls, and i'll be updating this as soon as i finish the flat scroll bar, check box, option button, and frame..

Ever wanted to create a tray bar for your MDIChild forms that looks like windows tray? or just tired to use Windows menu to switch beetween child forms? or just want to improve the looks of your app... Here is an example of how to create a form bar (a'la tray) to place in a mdi form. it doesn't use any api to detect forms and stuff, only old fasion Visual Basic event model. all u have to do is invoke ONE sub to add a form to the bar, and the rest will be done automatically. I have tested this control only in a MDI app, you are welcome to try its functionality in a SDI app, and leave your comments. Menu functions are not implemented fully, cause i couldn't decide how... Well u can add a custom menu, but control doesn't raise any event when a button is clicked. It's up to u to figure out and implement such functionality. Have fun (and rate!!!)

This is an ripple effect (well, it seems to be), which uses pure VB. My friends say, they look like ripples, but I don't. Just Hold the mouse over the form and move it.

VB Control Manager is an ActiveX control to allow the user to dock controls and resize, move and show/hide them at run-time. This is actually the improvement of my VB Splitter, an ActiveX control to resize docked controls at run-time. I change the name because VB Control Manager can do a lot of more than just to split/resize control. VB Control Manager has 14 properties, 4 methods, and 18 events customly made, plus two collection: a Controls collection (with 20 properties) and a Splitters collection (with 27 properties). To use the control, just place the VB Control Manager control on your form and add several controls on it. That's it! You don't have to add any codes to your form to have basic features of VB Control Manager. Just don't miss the demo (open the VB Control Manager Demo.vbg). Your feedback and votes will be very appreciated.

VB Splitter is a developer-friendly ActiveX control to allow the user to resize docked controls at run-time. You can now have a splitting-capability for any number of controls with only one VB Splitter control and one line of code in your program. The control has 11 properties, 2 methods and 7 events customly made for your pleasure. It's very well-commented and has a strong encapsulation technic that making this control an author-friendly ActiveX control. Just don't miss the demo (open the VB Splitter Demo.vbg). Your feedback and vote will be very appreciated. Thanks in advance.

A simple soft button control

Display Checkboxes in Listbox Horizontally I've been searching the internet and PSC on how to display checkboxes in a listbox in a horizontal manner but I didn't found any. Perhaps my search keywords are wrong but really I found nothing. I decided to re-examine the listbox property if I can find something that I have overlooked before and there it is. Who would have thought that by merely CHANGING THE COLUMNS PROPERTY TO ANY NUMBER OTHER THAN 0 WOULD ACCOMPLISH WHAT I WANTED TO DO. Many of you may have already known this but for newbies out there, this might help. See the screenshot to see what I mean. For the screenshot below, the setting is: Listbox1.columns = 4 OR In the properties list, change Columns = 0 to Columns = any number you want. The number of columns specified will configure the listbox to show 4 columns in its display window. A horizontal scrollbar will be displayed if the data display occupies more than 4 columns.
