Can Change The Shape of any form

Makes a Form Trans Parent

This subroutine shows how to Really put a ComboBox (or any control with a hWnd) onto a ToolBar (or any other control/window with a hWnd).

This code, which was inspired by a similar snippet of code by Ian Ippolito, permits tiling an image onto a form's background. This variant, though, resides in a module and is called by a form instead of residing within the form's code itself. This permits using the feature project-wide without redundant code all over the place.

This code, which was inspired by a similar snippet of code by Ian Ippolito, permits tiling an image onto an MDI parent form's background. Getting an image onto an MDI parent is easy. Getting a tiled one is another story. We could try using a Clipboard operation, or build a big tiled background and save it and then laod it into the MDI parent's Picture property, but these are nasty, anal-retentive, and likely to simply not work. This code, however, works...

Resizes two text boxes AS a divider is dragged left or right. Maintains full bounds checking. The methods used can be applied to other controls as well. This is a form of splitter bar.

Draws a nice 3D-Starfield in a Form (uses X,Y,Z positions) width a very short code Shades each star depending on the distance.

This .bas module allows you to re-size your form and all the controls re-size with it. I kept looking for code out on the internet that would do this right but I was never successful. So, I wrote this to eliminate the need for any ocx's or dll's. It resizes the SStab control which I found was a problem with most resizing routines (check it out for yourself). It also handles lines. It's also alot quicker. All you have to remember is two things. First, add the resize module (rs_form.bas), Second, Add one line of code (ResizeForm Me) to each form you want to re-size.

Capture a screen in a window, this one actually works...

This code allows you to quickly center a form within the screen without eating up alot of cpu time.

The following code will add great text effect to your applications. It changes the spacing between the characters. By changing spaces, the characters move on the screen.
