well now i have a lil more time to work on projects, i've finally finished debugging this one . its the first of a load o' generic controls i'll be creating for nk5, and like everything else of mine its open-source freeware . currently it adds shape, transparency, and topmost properties to forms... well... actually there properties of the control, but they effect the form its sat on... and if i can work out how to return the colour of individual pixels in a picture object ( object, not control!!!) then it won't need to change the forms picture property any more, and should be a lil faster . just stick it on a form, point the shape property to an image file, preferably a bmp, and run the project . all properties are explained in the lil description box thingy so it should be easy to use. there also all functional at runtime too, not just design time . send the ocx to regsvr32 or just recompile its source before trying to use. will then appear in the project-components dialog as "advanced window properties - freefornow.co.uk" somewhere at the top of the list. have fun . http://62.164.176.91/temp/AutoSkin.zip
