With only 6 lines of code, create an awesome new tab replacement that can be customized to any color, font and size that fits your application.

I worked again on this control and, as suggested, I combined several chart types. Also, I introduced the mean value to be displayed or not. I'm continuing in developing it, for example to allow series and Gantt style. Thank you again for your interest and vote.

I found on PSC the ActiveChart control and decided to use it in my programs, but it was not fully customizable. So, I implemented some new features. I'm still working on it for other customizations. Thanks for your interest in my work and thank you to MIRAGE for the basic idea.

This application demonstrates a customized popup menu, with a "rolling" (vertically scrolled and gradually revealed) effect. It works by using a second form embedded within the first as the popup menu. For more code samples visit my personal web site: click above on my full name.

Remember the custom defined colors for the common_color_dialog.

Little dll that allow you to transform a picture box to a progressbar. Using it is really simple and give you lot of effects (see screenshot), just see the read-me file inside the zip. Enjoy it!

WhizzoMenu Control. This control uses forms,graphical effects and hard code. all you have to do is understand how to use my control to create your own menus. This control doesn't use VB's Menu system and it doesn't use Windows Menu API. This control is also customizable. See the screenshot.

This control, when dropped on a borderless form will size itself to that of the form, and wala you have a new window. The window has all the abilities of the normal windows, it can be maximized, minimized, and can be manually resized. Also has a nifty lost and got focus effect, like that seen in Visio 2000 Professional. If you like this please drop me a line and tell me, or if you want to see something in it that isn't and don't know how to do it then let me know and I'll try. Once you load the control, click on the (Custom) property to see how to set up the form focus effect (only 2 lines) ***Update 1 11/21/01*** I found a temporary solution to the Focus effects problem but I'm still looking for a better method, check the control out and let me know if you know of a way to solve this is like api or something. ***Update 2 11/21/01*** FORM FOCUS EVENT PROBLEM FIXED, COMPLETELY FUCTIONAL NOW.... This control now uses SmartSubClass from www.vbsmart.com, you must have it in order to use this control, but its worth it, they also have some other sweet free controls..

Subforms in VB UPDATED!!!! This OCX allows you to set any one form in your project as a parent form and display all other forms within the project as a subform within a client area of the parent form. A demo client project within a .vbg is included (run_this.vbg). Register the .ocx using regsvr32 first. Major news: User control with CAPTION User control MOVEABLE at runtime User control SIZEABLE at runtime Change the ATTACHED Window Style Event GetAttachedWindowStyle(ByRef NewStyle As Long) (you can set your own Attached Window Style) Event NewStyle(ByVal PropertyName As String, ByVal newValue As Boolean)

Makes a "Trekkie" looking form by simply dropping the control on the form. Very light-weight, not a ton of features, but a very nice effect. There are two versions, one is a form that has all the code written into it, the other is a form utilizing the cool form control as an example of how much cleaner a project is when things like this are compartmentalized.

The EBSlider control is a self-contained, horizontal/vertical slider control written entirely in VB6.

This project is an enhancement/rewrite of another submission (see below). This project displays advanced Win2K/XP style "balloons". This version includes a title bar that can be used to "drag" the ballon, RTF support, scrollable text, simple rounded rectangle code, API border drawing code, and completely dynamic resizable balloon. See the readme in the project for details from original author and notes about enhancements. FYI: I had offerred to send this new code to the author for inclusion in the original but he wanted to keep his code separate so I figured I would go ahead and post my enhancements for everyone with his permission. (see the chat on the original post) ------ Clip from other submission ----- This code will show Windows 2000/XP-style popup balloons. They were introduced in Windows 2000, and in XP they're seen all over, especially in the system tray. But Microsoft hasn't released how to use them yet (except for tray icons),and--if they did--it would only work on Windows 2000 or later. This project shows you how you can use these balloons in your programs. Instead of relying on Windows to make them, this program makes its own. Therefore, it will not only work with Windows 2000 and XP, but also with all other versions of Windows (down to 95). .....

If you must let people resize things at runtime, then this is a good solution. Plz, vote!

This control is just an image of a dashboard fuel gauge with a needle pointing to the percentage done. It's very simple and can be modified to use other images. It has the typical min, max, value properties along with a property for showing the value label. The source is not commented much, but it's mostly self explanatory. I hope you like it, and modify it to suite your needs. PLEASE VOTE, I'd like to continue making more gauges and switches, so inspire me!

NOW WITH MAX AND MIN PROPERTIES!! This is a simple horizontal progress bar with yellow and red zones. The zones can be changed and values must be within 100. If you don't want any zones at all and just want green, just set the yellow and red to 100. Still working on a more visible label for the center, otherwise not bad. PLEASE VOTE NO MATTER WHAT YOU THINK.

Just a few fixes added to this one. I made it easier to select the colors. Now you just change the "Color" property to any of the enums that popup. It does the rest for you. The Demo will illustrate that as well as the screen shot. Don't worry, I'm working on scaling. :-) PLEASE vote!!

This 7 segment LED control has a simple code interface for displaying standard 7 segment characters. It's expandable to do anything you want. Just set the dim and bright colors, the character to display and you have it! Please vote, even if you don't like it.

NEW UPDATE! I have now made it so you can use an 8 character string to effectively "turn on" certain segments in the display!! It includes ALL the functionality as the previous versions as well! CHECK IT OUT. Please vote.
