Hi all,
I have found some C lang. code in \FWH\SOURCE\WINAPI called MENUS.C, and have played a little with this code.
I managed to give a nicer look (at least in my opinion) to the menus.

This code can be simply pasted preferably inside the main program (see below), and it will work.
In my case, I use a nice (modified) CLR_HCYAN background, and with about 10 lines of code which I added in
DIALOG.PRG, I managed to create all my dialogs with a very impressive background brush, also in tones of
this CLR_HCYAN background. Most of my users have found the new look of my programs as very relaxing,
and that they do not cause eye problems (in other words, they said that their eyes can see better now).

Anyone who likes to use the code, is able to do it (I am not the original author of the code), however, there
is just one problem (please consider that I haven't used "C" for thousands of years)...
The problem is that the highlighted item (the one you place the mouse over it) has the usual blue background,
(the complete ractangle of the menu item is blue), but the background under the menu item string, holds the
modified CLR_HCYAN color, which I found as a big problem.

If someone can modify the code, and make the background under the letters, as BLUE to match the rectangle's
blue background, will be highly appreciated.

Here's the code... I would like to thank anyone involved into this, and of course, anyone who wishes to use
the code in his programs is welcome. (I guess that when fixed by our C gurus, the corrected code will be
also posted here.

Greetings to all fellow programmers and friends!

Evans,
Now as you have worked on menu-source do you think it is possible to have tooltips on menus and menuitems.
Thanks in advance
Otto

Hi Otto,
I'll work with tooltips on menus, and menuitems, however,
I'm still puzzled with the background color of the selected subitem.

It appears that no one (yet) has been involved in resolving this specific issue, but it doesn't
mean that nobody is interested. Just imagine the possibility to give the users the ability
to select their own background color for menus, which actually is my aim.

I'm sure you've tested the code I have posted here (for menus). If you're interested, I can
send you the DIALOG.PRG (all my additions are marked properly in the file), to test the
new brush I'm using...

If you want, I can also post it here, as soon as you tell me so (of course, this applies to
anyone interested to change the appearance of any program, without the use of any special
libraries, but the original and beloved FWH code.

I wish I could easily find out how to post a screenshot of my program, to show you how
it looks! (any advise of how I can post an image is welcome).

Kind regards to all
Evans

Hello Evans,
thank you for your offer.

I use this screen capture tool. You have to save the screen captures as jpg files and store them on a ftp-server.
Put then the link into .
Best regards,
Otto

Form the homepage:
Version 2.1 (Fully functional evaluation version)
TNT Screen Capture is free for private use!

http://www.ec-software.com/downloads_tnt.html

Best regards,
Otto

screen capture without tool:
print screen-key - complete screen
Alt-print screen-key - currently selected window

Thanks To All for the image posting advises...

1. Here's a link to the Main Window (MDI WINDOW), main menu.
Please notice the HCYAN background under the text of highlighted menuitem.
This is what I was trying to get rid of!
http://img207.imageshack.us/my.php?image=menu1d.jpg

2. Here's the menu of an MDI WINDOW. Also please notice the annoying HCYAN backround
which I didn't manage to fix yet.
http://img43.imageshack.us/my.php?image=menu2.jpg

3. Here we have a dialog with my modified DIALOG.PRG.
Please notice that the HCYAN brush is just a nice looking brush, however, I could easily
modify the program to allow users select the brush they wish to utilize in their dialogs
(even workstation to workstation).
Also, mind that the modified DIALOG.PRG, will only use a brush, if the dialog uses the
standard windows' colors. If a different background color or brush is used for a dialog,
then the program will act as expected, and will not use the default brush resource.
http://img20.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dialog1.jpg

- The DIALOG.PRG can be posted here (as modified by me) as a stand alone file.
Anyone interested just let me know.

- The annoying background of the highlighted menuitem (the one that the cursor is over it),
is something that I need help from our friends to resolve.
Look like the time I was using C language has long gone... (to my embarashment of course)
Please give me a hand to resolve this issue.

Thanks to all in advance.

I´m interested

Stefan and all hi,
Here's the file DIALOG.PRG. Please notice that the brush used in DIALOG.PRG (as modified) is called
WPAPER2.BMP. It should be added to your .RC file as follows,
WPAPER2 BITMAP "./Bitmaps/WPAPER2.BMP"
It can be downloaded from this link:
http://img32.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wpaper2.png

The code for DIALOG.PRG (include this DIALOG.PRG to your .XBP file) will be posted in my next message to follow...

Kind regards
Evans Bartzokas
ps. Any comments from other friends...?

* DIALOG.PRG (Modified for using a brush to standard window color dialogs)
* The brush is called WPAPER2 and it should be included in the .RC file !

// Add this line to your .RC file
// WPAPER2 BITMAP "./Bitmaps/WPAPER2.BMP"

Evans,

thanks for your contribution, but I get these errors compiling with bcc

Error E2342 Source\\Dialog.prg 1018: Type mismatch in parameter 'lpPrevWndFunc' (wanted 'long (__stdcall *)(HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long)', got 'int (__stdcall *)()') in function LabelProc
Error E2342 Source\\Dialog.prg 1066: Type mismatch in parameter 'lpPrevWndFunc' (wanted 'long (__stdcall *)(HWND__ *,unsigned int,unsigned int,long)', got 'int (__stdcall *)()') in function LabelProc

Stefan,
I apologize but I am using an older version of FWH (Feb of 2006)
You may find where I've made changes in my own DIALOG.PRG, and
apply these changes to your DIALOG.PRG.
I'm sure that the two files (DIALOG.PRG) must be different by now!
You can spot the changes if you search for "// V." (this V. stands for Vagelis or Evans)

Please let me know if you succeed.
Thanks and once again sorry for the inconvenience.
ps. Please notice that the "C" code which is at the bottom of the DIALOG.PRG, which
I've posted here, is neccessary. You will have to copy it and paste it to your DIALOG.PRG

Hi Evans,

the error does not depend on the fwh source, it´s an error in your c module. Do you use borland or ms c ? Maybe it´s a incompatibility between the two compilers.

Stefan hi,
I am using xHarbour builder, so I guess, I'm using PELES.
I have no means of testing the C code with Borland.
The C code, is for making the static dialog SAYs transparent, and I have copied it from this news group.

Again, sorry for the inconvenience.
Perhaps Antonio can help more with this...

Kind regards
Evans

Hi Evans,

E. Bartzokas wrote:Stefan hi,

Ok, that explains the error, there must be some different definitions in the header files. Thanks anyway for your support.

Maybe any c-guru in this forum can help to support this piece of code to borland c.
