Galahad 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2007 What is the purpose of your topic? Did you make that AcitveX control that skins applications written in Visual Basic? Or are you just announcing that such ActiveX exists?Making your application use skins is, when looked from the software aspect, fairly easy to do... Physicaly, it is very hard, as you must precisely define all the coordinates, widths, heights, X and Y positions, + if your form has the ability to be resized, you must include complex calculations, so that resizing looks good, at any ratio... That's the hard part... Planet Source Code site is full of examples that use skinning of applications, but I myself am not a fan of skinning every possible application... I agree, they should look nice, but also, a skin designer must know his/her job, and make it "flow"... To be intuitive, and easy to operate, not just grapicaly cool...But, then againg, that's my oppinion... I'll add a skinning tutorial perhaps... Or maybe how a multi-language application works, and how to build such engine... Most likely the latter...Cheers... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
