Description:
I require a Billboard style listbox which looks and acts like the blue left pane in Windows XP to display extra information. It appears to be a listbox which SMOOTHLY expands and retracts based on the information. All colors, styles and fonts should be accesible as properties. It should support disabled items and preferably a gradient in the title, as shown above. . It should also support images and deciding how many items to show and how many to keep hidden. For instance, if the whole list is 8 items, I can choose to show 4 of them and add a directional arrow to prompt the user to expand the box for more choices. The "list" should generate a Click() event that can be handled via the Index or Key of the clicked item. It might be nice if the control could shift clicked items from the hidden portion of the list to the upper portion as an advanced function (bonus???? :-)
A bonus will definitely be given for someone who can also create a panel which can hold multiple billboards, which would mean that their position would shift based on whether the panel above is open or not.
Im sure this can be completed fairly easily by someone who is familiar with owner drawn controls.
Check the attached file for more detail.
Deliverables: 1) Coder agrees to compile the control with copyright information which will be provided later.
2) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done.
3) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased.
Platform:
Win32 compatible

Hi, I can create a control that fulfils all of your requirements.
Please find enclosed a control that I completed 2 days ago for saustin as an example of my work (he gave me a 10 by the way).
I can add properties to the control that will enable you to add a group, and then from that group you can add sub items with a key, with that key you can disabled individual items, change fonts, colours etc.
You would also be able to set a gradient fill for the background of the title bar as well as set the expanded state of the group in code e.g.
sidebar1('Panel1').expanded=true sidebar1('Panel1').visibleitems = 4 Etc
The control will also support For, next loops for groups and subitems.
If you like my work in the sample of have any comments, let me know.
