View 3 Repliesis there a way to have that aero glass effect using XP Pro when creating forms and please give me walk thru on this. I want to have that look on all my forms.
View 4 RepliesI can't figure out how it is possible to change the color for aero glass (which is blue by default).I want to change it to yellow (or brown) if the battery level (only for laptops of course) is low, to red when its critical. I have read a lot and was able to read the color (registry and api) and I was able to get notified when the color changes (wndproc) but there is no api call to set the color. I am able to set the registry key. That works, but requires a reboot, which is (in my case) not a solution. I have tried to simulate the wndproc message as broadcast, no result...What does the control panel applet do? If I change the color there it will be instantly applied, even the setting is not saved to the registry (which will be the best solution for my case). Programming language is vb9, vista is required by the application itself, so no other checks are required.
View 8 RepliesI using the VistaControls control library (here) and I have a WebBrowser control that will have black in it on the form. When I set the background color to black in the HTML, the glass renders fine. So I added some text that is red, but it shows up as a transparent red. How do I get the text to be opaque?
Also, if I want to have black text in the HTML, how do I get that to show correctly?

I'm trying to have Aero Glass look in my forms in VB.NET 2010 app with DWM API, but as function call suggests, it extends look of Frame to the client area, and if form has no border, nothing will happen and form will become invisible. So, can I get Aero glass in a form without any border.... ??

My program can detect when Aero is present, but it has trouble when the user is in Aero Basic because it doesn't use the transparency or glass look. I am wondering if there is a call to the dwmapi that can tell me if the computer is using Aero Basic.

View 4 Repliesafter many weeks of annoying compatibility with windows xp, I realized that I should change the .netbar buttons to standard windows buttons. When I did this, and put the button on the transparency area and then debugged the application. I found out that the transparency add-in made the text inside the button transparent: How can I make the text show just the color, not transparent?

View 3 RepliesI am making a TabControl with different textures and a sliding look. But I am having trouble with following points :-
1. How to make buttons click able at Design time, so as to switch to different tabPages [which are panels in this case]
2. How to add a property ex. TabPages() as Panel collection Editor [like TabPages Collection editor in case of TabControl]
I tried,
Public ReadOnly Property TabPages() As List(Of Panel)
Get
TabPages = p
ref()
End Get
End Property
Where p is another List of panel and ref() checks new addition of control in p -> adds it to UserControl.
