The tfolder class works OK in fwh

Just a small advice, Get rid of all Borland Controls (Borshade,...etc). This is the best way to have your app running.

Borland controls were a problem to many of us.

Richard,

How do I get rid of the Borland Controls ?

Resource Workshop uses but the Borland Controls.

For dialog boxes one can choose between BorDlg_Gray or BorDlg.
Without Borland Controls some controls are colored a very ugly gray.

What is the alternative while using resources ?

Thanks.

You can set color to your dialog boxes from your source code.

When you select the dialog in resource workshop, select none (borlandgray, or borland you have a third selection (none) blank)

You can customize all your screens without any borland control.

If you need further help or samples, let me know.

My 2 cents

Hello guys,

I found the reason why my folders didn't appear in my dialog box.

(See my previous topic to see examples).

There was a control (a box around the folders) which is put in the background in FW16. In FW32 though it is put in front of the folders which make them invisible.

I got rid of those boxes and guess what : my folders were back.

Thanks anyway for your efforts to help me.

Many greetings,

Michel

Michel,

When you refer to the differences between FW16 and FW32, remember that some of these differences may be due to different versions of FW rather than 16bit vs 32bit. I presume you have an older version of FW16 than the version of FW32 that you are using.

Hello guys,

My problem concerning my folders is solved.

In FW16 I had a box drawn around my folders and it showed beautiful.

In FW32 the box comes on top of the folders. So I got rid of the box and the folders reappeared again.

Thank you so much for helping me.

Regards,

Michel

Seems to be the order the controls are defined in RC.
Try to put the box at the begining of the dialog, before the other controls.
