How to make this with FWH ?

[Marco Turco]

Hi to all,
I succesfully using the class VTITLE to make a title control over (or under) a browse or another control. I can also add a buttonbar on this control.

See this sample image at www.softwarexp.co.uk/beta/vtitle.png where I use this control (follow the arrows)

My question:
could be possibile to make this also with the standard FWH classes ?
I haven't any problem with C5 but - by experience - there are always problems with third parts components when we update FWH so a build-in FWH control would be preferable.

Thanks.

Marco,

What syntax do you use for VTitle ?

I guess we can easily create a replacement for it using standard FWH source code

Hello Marco,

I will put a source-creator in the forum,
that will do the job for you for a given design.
It is 100% FW-code

Hi Marco,

I think we had bought more C5 products or other 3rd party.
C5 offer to near 100% full source code that let me modify it when FWH or xHarbour upgrade. So your problem only one. Try to find problem and modify it for compatible new FWH or xHarbour. You try this, you will be study C5 products skill for you.

Hi Richard,
as written we haven't any problem with C5
and we also succesfully use others C5 controls without problem.

However - in my opinion - I would like to have an alternative class as "second choice" built into FWH to avoid update problems in the future.

C5 provide near the 100% source code as many other third parts components providers and it is appreciated but it is not a warrancy because the library has to be compatible in the same moment with the current xharbour version (and pcode) and with the current FWH version.
Simply take a look to the FWH and xharbour's newsgroups to see how many problems the FWH users have had with third class components (Easypreview, excel class, barcode etc...) when they made a relevant Harbour/FWH upgrade.

What it will happens if the library authors go to holiday for two months and I need to update Harbour of FWH to the current version for bug fixs of to include more features to my app ?

To ALL
