Excellent Work!! I'd give you 6 globes
if I could.

11/9/2001 12:16:56 PM:Aaron Morris
Very nice .... You could add a mouse
over state. That would make the
buttons even cooler.
|
11/9/2001 12:26:38 PM:gonchuki
yes... i could do that but no one of
these buttons have a mouse over state
in real life
|
11/9/2001 1:37:31 PM:Marc
Great code. One question though. Is
there an easy way to change it so the
focus rectangle isn't there when you
click on the buttons?
|
11/9/2001 3:18:38 PM:gonchuki
I updated the zip with this feature.
Now you can hide the focus rect.
|
11/9/2001 5:34:33 PM:gonchuki
NEW UPDATE!!! it now
supports custom colors!
|
11/10/2001 3:14:29 AM:Rayson
hey man, good code :) especially what
you did with the XP button :) I LIKE !
|
11/10/2001 7:34:06 AM:shadowlynx
great code! is there a way to change
the font of the buttons though?
|
11/10/2001 10:40:17 AM:gonchuki
This property already exists since the
first upload....

Great code! I was working on a custom
button myself, but your's is by far
more stable and usable than mine at
this point. There are two things I
should point out however, and only b/c
you asked in your code comments. 1) The
XP button does not have the blue border
highlight unless it is the default
button, otherwise the border highlight
is the same as the rest of the button,
2) the XP button does have a mouse over
effect, the border highlight turns an
orange color. Other than those two
items (really insignificant points at
that) this is some nice professional
coding... something that seems to be
becoming a rarity on PSC anymore. Keep
up the good work!
|
11/10/2001 11:56:19 AM:Jesse Wilson
Oh before I forget, one other "problem"
I noticed is that while the other
button styles can have a custom or user
chosen backcolor, the XP button style
does not seem to be able to. That and
it doesn't seem to match the system
colors either. Fixing this shouldn't be
an issue however, if I can "fix" it I
will send you my update. Anyways, sorry
for the nitpicking, and once again...
great code!

Hey, great, and I mean GREAT code here.
I've already implemented it in all of
my best projects. One "itsy bitsy"
comment/suggestion for ya'. You got the
Windows XP Style Buttons wrong, not
greatly, but wrong. I'm working on
fixing it right now, but if you would
like to see the template that I'm
working from, this link will bring you:

Good job, 5 Globes!

Very nice job here.
|
11/11/2001 2:35:37 PM:Cory G.
i like this code, i am going to use it
in my project to replace one of the
buttons i was using from a ocx, i have
added a very small amount of code to
make the style of a flat button on ie5,
if you want it just email me.
|
11/12/2001 2:58:15 AM:Robin Schuil
Very nice code. However, it is not
original. I've seen the same lib a few
weeks ago on some other VB site. I will
look up the URL and post it here..
|
11/12/2001 4:43:16 AM:Jon
These buttons are very nice, however
what stops me using them is the absence
of a picture property (and/or picture
and text).
Great work though.
|
11/12/2001 6:24:41 PM:mario
not original? this is Unique. it's the
best button i've seen!
|
11/12/2001 8:52:16 PM:nunya bidness

very nice, 5* from me!

11/13/2001 8:16:41 AM:gonchuki
i'm working to fix the XP button, come
soon to see!
|
11/13/2001 1:01:02 PM:Mike Jenkings
Very nice work, easy to use and adds a
touch of interest and professionalism
to any project. Nice to be rid of those
nasty gray buttons. 5*s
|
11/13/2001 2:43:30 PM:gonchuki
UPDATE!!! the Windows XP buttons now
look as they should. Thanks for the
feedback and the votes folks!
|
11/13/2001 9:34:19 PM:Vinchenzo
Incredible! It's simply wonderful and
neat! No piggy coding here!
|
11/14/2001 5:36:10 PM:PxHxAxNxTxOxM
Very, I mean VERY, excellent coding
here. I've been trying to simulate the
exact same XP button since it came
out...I just couldn't get it down
pat...Thanks a million for this
code...5 and 1/2 globes :)
|
11/14/2001 5:38:04 PM:PxHxAxNxTxOxM
Dude, I've been workin on a WINXP
button since it came out...Major Props
to you dude. I've d/led almost all
your work, but my special favorite was
your computer lock out thing...That was
major sweet. Keep up the good work! 5
Globes

11/15/2001 9:58:21 AM:Janekk
Applauses! With these buttons every
application can get a new, spicy and
interesting look. 5 globes.

Good Job Man!! 5 s' for u

11/16/2001 6:23:42 AM:Dylan Morley
Excellent work, a very effective control
|
11/18/2001 8:03:09 AM:gonchuki
Another Update... it wasn't slow, but
now is FASTER!
|
11/20/2001 8:19:58 AM:Dylan Morley
One thing I've picked up on using this
is the absence of a multi-line feature.
With the standard VB button, if the
caption-text is wider than the button
and the button height allows it, the
text will shift onto multiple lines. It
would be nice to add in, if you have
the time.
|
11/24/2001 3:39:42 PM:Björn
Superb code and looks. Never seen
better.
|
12/29/2001 10:57:07 AM:gonchuki
next version coming soon...
|
12/30/2001 5:55:32 AM:MH
The XP Button is wrong. The blue border
stands for default, not focus.
Look at
the Windows XP Guidelines provided by
Microsoft.
Hope you change it.
|
1/3/2002 5:25:02 AM:Schoedler
Good work !!! You got 5 balls ... C'ya.
|
1/3/2002 5:51:29 AM:Schoedler
Hey man! In the next version, how about
insert pictures with customizable
position (top, bottom, left, right) ???
Thanks and sorry my bad english !!!!
|
1/4/2002 10:03:44 PM:shaohua
This is the work result I've ever
dreamed of. Thanks god! You've just
placed a stepping stone for every
others who walks through it.

There is a bug with the Font property.
When you change any property of the
Font object for the button the display
is not updated with the new Font
properties. Just insert a cb.Font.Size
= 28 into one of the button's click
events to test it. I have had this
problem in some controls I have
created. I found a workaround but
there has to be a better way. Just let
me know if you want to see it.
|
1/22/2002 10:38:13 AM:schoedler
One suggestion ... Try to use the
keybd_event API, no SendKeys. Win2k has
a bug that freeze the keyboard using
SendKeys VB function. Try no use With
vb command ... It makes the code slow.
C´ya !!!!
|
1/22/2002 10:43:36 AM:schoedler
One little bug !!! When you set the
ButtonType to [Java Metal] and after to
another type, the font remain bold. Try
use the follow code instead the
If:
UserControl.FontBold =
(MyButtonType = [Java metal])
One
more thing: In the ButtonType (let),
you read the ButtonType property ...
Always use the local variable for the
test ... Ex.:
Wrong:
If ButtonType
= [Java metal] Then
UserControl.FontBold =
True
Correct:
If MyButtonType =
[Java metal] Then UserControl.FontBold
= True
Best Regards!

Hi again !!!
I have found some
performance tips ...
In
SetAccessKeys function, try to use Mid$
(with the $ ... this way the function
returns a String value ... In Mid, the
return is a variant ... 20% faster with
Mid$!) ... Use also LCase$, UCase$,
Str$, String$, Space$ ...
Best
Regards!
|
1/22/2002 11:23:12 AM:schoedler
Hey !
More one tip: if you want the
control MORE faster, try to use the
SendMessage API, using the WM_SETREDRAW
option. Disabling the redraw, the
system dont lost time redrawing the
object !!!
Example:
'To disable
the redraw
SendMessage
UserControl.hwnd, WM_SETREDRAW, False,
0&
'type here commands to draw in
the object
'To re-enable the
redraw
SendMessage UserControl.hwnd,
WM_SETREDRAW, True,
0&
UserControl.Refresh
C´ya
!!!!

GRRREEEAAAT CODE!
|
1/31/2002 4:09:26 AM:Logan009
Hi,
the dblclick should look like
this (I added a line):
Private Sub
UserControl_DblClick()
If LastButton
= 1 Then
UserControl_Click
Call UserControl_MouseDown(1, 1, 1,
1)
End If
End Sub
That way, two
fast clicks on the button will result
in two click-Events.
Nevertheless:
Good Work! Picture-Support would be
good... :-))
Best
regards,
Logan009@gmx.de
|
2/2/2002 8:42:24 AM:PROBLEM!
You get 5*s but there is a PROBLEM!
When I have any kind of button once I
click it once whenever I click the form
(or outside of the form) instead of
doing what it is supposed to (like if I
click the [X]) the button will get
pressed. And if i click on the form the
button and evertthing else won't work.

Ok, not sure what the heck the guy
above is trying to say. Reading his
comments is not incredibly easy on the
eyes. GREAT CODE!! Latley I have been
checking out posts from PSC LESS AND
LESS due to the diminishing worth of
these posts. One more "fake e-mail" or
"new trojan" and I think I'll puke, ha.
Anyway the code is absolutely
excellent. I like it so much I'm
having difficulty deciding if I want to
change out my buttons or not.
SUGGESTIONS: two things, a) graphic /
picture support would be nice; b)
"wrapping" should be added for captions
longer than the width of the button. I
myself often use mult-line buttons. 5
globes!

I'll be really impressed when it
emulates a MacOS X button! Woo hoo!
Pretty cool as is, though.
|
2/5/2002 10:18:11 AM:LCensoni
I think there's not much left to say...
|
2/5/2002 10:58:17 AM:Mohammad Asif
Is there any way to have a small 2nd
caption on the button, say at a
top-left corner. I am looking for ways
to have a short-cut key indicator on
the button but I don't like it part of
the standard caption, or inside
paranthese. Would it be easy for you to
add this feature?
|
2/6/2002 5:29:01 AM:schoedler
Hey gonchuki !!!
You can implement
graphics support in the buttons and the
"check-style" ...
What you think
???
|
6/20/2002 12:40:01 AM:Al
What more can I say other than truley
AWSOME!
