This is an enhanced Start menu from the BoS project. I pulled out the explorer functionality and made it standalone. New features include: more natural response to mouse rollover, you can set the font, font size and height of the items, the menu gets the real text width and height at runtime so it can adapt to any font, font size or style. Item spacing can be adjusted by adjusting picItem(0) text and icons are centered vertically at run time. Must See. Thanks to Brian for his COOL BoS. I feel this functionality with its enhancements can be really useful in your projects.

This demonstrates the use of alpha blending to create the illusion of a semi-transparent form. This effect can be used to make some VERY COOL form closing effects.

We all know the progress bars used in Windows 2000 when u log on don't we? Well I simulated this and put it into an ocx file for ease of use. It is also alot nicer to look at. This is my first OCX file that i have ever created so it will be very messy, but don't be too harsh when judging.

It animates the window in three styles (from which you can choose) when the form is moved anywhere. (I was just playing when I got this.)

This code shows you how to do docking or snapping (however you may like to call it). It has two docking styles -- one is with a timer and the other one is just a normal one. You can dock one form with the other, and you can also dock, any of the forms, with the screen ends.

Updates and fixes 11/11/00:  I have updated the example a bit. I updated the move for (thanks to Joey Burgett). I fixed the code in the OpenSkin sub, now if the user is a first time user it will load the default skin! Because of a request i also made it so that the form can be in the Windows task bar!  I also updated the SkinBuilder, now you can make the exit and minimize buttons show or hide its captions and i added a new feature that allows you to preview the skin in a form so that you know what the skin will look like (this is why the skinbuilder source is now in the "skin" directory)  And i also made 4 new Skins (Some graphics are from SoftShape, view skin comments for more)!!   ============================ Hello VB'ers. This code allows you to custumize (skin) your project 100% (size, shape, etc) It also comes with a skin builder and 4 skins. It can save the last used skin, move the position of object and much more!

Individual back- and forecolors and fonts are also possible as well as an assortment of Icons to be displayed in the tooltip and finally individual delay- and show-times. And whats more - the tooltip can now speak using Microsoft's Speech Object Library (SpVoice in sapi.dll), no XVoice.dll or VText.dll! The code is easy to follow and well documented.
