Windows 7-style Shadows ?

Oct 31, 2009

I'm using the standard code for form drop shadows that creates an effect identical to that of XP's, but you will notice in Windows 7 that the shadows are much larger, are not visible only on the right & bottom sides of the form (example: [URL])

Here's the code I'm currently using:

Private Const CS_DROPSHADOW As Integer = &H20000

Protected Overrides ReadOnly Property CreateParams() As System.Windows.Forms.CreateParams

[CODE]...

Is there a way to expand the shadow to resemble Windows 7 more?

Windows Explorer Address Bar Style Combobox?

Feb 13, 2010

I am creating a Windows Application in VB.Net 2.0. The application is an FTP transfer application, where I need to display 2 panes. On the first pane, I need to display the client folder structure and on the other pane, I need to display the remote FTP server. Most of the functionality is complete, but I am stuck on 2 places.

1. I need to display a combo box on top, similar to the one we have for Windows Explorer Address bar (where we can see My Computer, Desktop, Network Places, Drives, etc.). I have searched a lot but could not find something matching my requirement other than a few 3rd party controls which I need to purchase (I am looking for something open-source).

2. I am using ListView Control to display the files list. I need to show icons for "My Computer", Network Places and desktop on the List View, which I am not able to do. Is there any way I can display these Icons and make them work exactly the way Windows Explorer does?
