Man - the code looks great, but the
check and option buttons don't work
when I run this - I just get white
squares and circles....

Top Level menu items that are disabled
do not display properly. Problem is
in prior versions also.

Your code just seems to get better and
better. I have kept up with it since
you released the first version of it.
But you still have yet to send me a
reply about the bit of code I sent you
in regards to the CoolMenu. Please
help me out and reply. If you haven't
received it, please email me with an
email address to send it
to.
Thanks,
Dragonrider15

No pues tu código es de los mejores que
he visto, con él pude hacer lo que
siempre había soñado, de poner los
iconitos en los menús.
¡Gracias por
compartirlo!

Great Code! Since you've obviously
spent a lot of time working w/ the Menu
APIs, I'll ask you this: Do you know
how to make a menu sit in a 'CoolBar'
control? Reply to Dan@blueknot.com,
please; much appreciated!

The White bug... I'm still working on
it but it doesn't do it on my system.
I posted a new version of the code,
try it and send feedback.
The main
menu item disable bug will be fixed
soon. I wasn't aware of it.
Dragon,
I'm sure I didn't lost you're e-mail,
I'll find it and reply.
I don't read
Spanish very well, I'll translate and
get back on you
To make a menu on a
CoolBar, you have to use popups and
API. A
complete vb CoolBar is my
next project.

Bajé de nuevo el código y ahora si...
En mi sistema funciona a la perfección.

Excellent code!!! If it is no trouble
to you please keep me posted on any
updates, etc. I have converted the
code you submitted into a DLL and will
use it in all my projects and would
love to be kept up to date on bugs and
enhancements! Thanks again and great
job!!!

Great code! I've run into one problem
though.. When I transfered the code
over to my project, I get an illegal
operation upon exiting the program, and
when compiled the program hangs. I
can't figure it out.. Any ideas?
|
9/5/2000 5:51:27 PM:S.Gilman
Okay.. I fixed the crash by removing
the End statement from the
MDIForm_Unload event, but now the
application won't exit. I know that I
have all forms unloaded, but it just
won't exit.

What an excellent code ! But you may
check out the code released by
www.vbaccelerator.com. They always
released such code espeacially what the
Microsoft do ! If you don't mind, email
me when you release a new code ! My
email is john_wei_86@hotmail.com

Hey, I thought i'd translate that for
you ppl on here
...
-----------------------
First:

Your code is the best that I have
seen. With it I can do what I have
always dreamed of, put icons in the
menus. Thank you for sharing
it!

Second:

I tried the code again, and it
worked
perfectly.

are with my knowledge of Spanish.
Please don't flame me if they are wrong

S.Gilman I'm waiting for it to

hooking look for an un hook in the
code's unload. just an idea i'll have a
look when it gets here.

Is there a way to make the menu send a
click event for a seperator? I can not
seem to find anything on it. I am using
CoolMenu in my project. Any
suggestions? Thanks.

Hi, everybody
I am working on the
backgroud color ans other color but it
seem that ist not easy ;-)
Well if
anybody know how to change the
backcolor please tell it
!
BACK_COLOR = 5 ' this put the
backgroud white but only the parts whit
menu the right part stay the same color
of the system color !
So can we
replace the fuction getsystemcolor for
a color that we can put in the
back_color constant ?
Sory for my
poor english i am french !

This is excellent. Good job.
One
request would be to allow an image to
be tiled as the background. I'm going
to see if I can add that myself, but if
you already know how it would be that
much better.
Keep up the good work.

2/3/2001 4:42:26 PM:Jason Foral
I noticed how the Separtators kinda get
cut off. If you can email me the
project with the changes so it doesn't
get cut off, that would be great. Great
code Mr.Martin! I will definately use
it in my App's. If you don't want to
email me the modifications, please tell
me what I change to get that effects.

Hi, I solved the disabled-top-menu
problem couple of months ago and mailed
it to Olivier. But I noticed he hasn't
uploaded it yet... so I've done it.
Just search for Coolmenu 1.3.1

2/24/2001 10:23:24 PM:Greg C.
This is great code but what code do I
use to make those neet seperators??
A
reply would be great!

This code is fantastic. Just a little
bug under Win2K: if you just move the
mouse over menu bar, without clicking,
main menus don't pop as they would. Any
idea? trax102@hotmail.com
In any case
Excellent rating by me.
|
4/22/2001 10:29:05 AM:Olivier Martin
I received a lot of feedback lately. I
think I'll get back to it. Expect a
post this summer. Please, email to kick
by lazy butt.
Tricera,
the code was
never tested under W2k. I'll see what I
can do

MDI BUG, if the child windows is
maximazed and you use the "MDI Menu
Icon" it is all messy and corupted, any
ideas? I would love to use the on a MDI
app!

5/13/2001 12:32:31 AM:Greg C.
Did you ever finish the "CoolBar"
Control?
Thanks,
I will stop
bothering you for now!! :)

Hey Oliver! Any plans to make Cool
Menu Office XP style? I would do it
myself, but can't find a way to get the
shadow of the picture. Just
wondering.
-Matt

5/23/2001 10:15:33 PM:VBfool
yes, A complete Office XP
coolmenu/docking toolbar code would be
nice, but a little to much coding for
me!
|
5/29/2001 3:38:06 AM:Iradicoder
Very nice. Is there a way I can check
for a right mouse button click on a
menu item so I can use a context menu?
Like Internet Explorer's Favorites menu?
|
5/29/2001 3:41:34 AM:Iradicoder
Very nice. Is there a way I can check
if the right mouse button is clicked on

6/22/2001 1:32:29 PM:BAPWorld
Can you email me a simplified version
of your code, that only shows how to
change the color of the text. Thank
you for your time. Awesome code.
|
7/11/2001 5:17:11 AM:Enzo
It compliments for your class menu, why
you do not supply to ampliarla and
renderla similar to the XP

I love the effects which this code can
create, but adding 5 different files to
my project is way too much overhead for
me. How are chances that version 1.4
can be turned into a COM object or an
ActiveX control, thus shrinking it all
into one file?
I'd love to get
updates.

I dunno if you updated it, but if you
use end it crashes.

I recently upgraded to Windows XP and
that's when all the trouble started. I
can't get the pictures in the menu's
anymore. When I use the program on a
Windows 9x machine, there's no problem,
but I would really like it to be
compatible with XP. By the way: the
optionbuttons and checkboxes are
working fine.
Does anybody have an
idea what could be wrong? I'm getting
pretty desperate over here ; )
Maybe
somebody cab find the time to help me
out on this. Not just for me, but for
all the other guys that will probably
upgrade to Windows XP one of these
days/months/years(*).

10/26/2001 3:55:10 AM:MarcoN
Great work!
Just a remark: if you
use the coolMenu in a MDI environment,
the "system menu" of the MDI child is
also sublclassed when the child is
maximized. So, after a few clicks
nothing works anymore.
Everything
works fine if the child is NOT
maximized.
Thanks for any help you
could provide me.
Regards.

11/15/2001 9:34:12 PM:weixingxing
Great work! thanx u very much!
but ,
there is a question:
when i use
Chinese Char (Code Page:936) in menu
Caption , the char of menu caption can
not be recognised.
what can i do ?
|
4/30/2002 5:48:39 AM:Nick Spliff
Excellent work mate, but i've found an
important bug that nobody else has
mentioned here.
The trouble is
that you cannot have any menu items on
the same form that have similar
captions.
For example...
A menu
item captioned "Windows Media Player"
will have the same picture created as a
menu item captioned with
"Windows".
This is purely using
simple menu captions, and not with the
extra settings that would normally have
been separated with a |. Is this the
problem?
I'd really appreciate it if
you could correct this cuz i've scanned
thru the code and can't find anything
like it.
Thanks Martin.
Nick
|
4/30/2002 5:58:54 AM:Nick Spliff
One more thing i've just noticed about
that little caption bug.
This works
perfectly with menu items that you have
given a keyboard shortcut (example
Ctrl+C), but without a shortcut... the
bug occurs.
Thanks again.
Nick
