Vista has a new kind of control named CommandLink which behaves like a standar button, but enhances the user experience.
Look at the screenshot:
The control shows an image, a main text and a brief description of the action.
To understand how ity works we can see the source code to create the second button on the image above:
WITH OBJECT TCommandLink():New( oForm )
:cText := "CommandLink"
:cNote := "This is the new TCommandLink control"
:lShield := .T.
:Create()
END
The file vistacommandlink.zip
has all the control source code. Just compile it and add the OBJ to any project where you want to use it.
Regards.
Haven’t tested yet, but I assume it obly works with Vista
Yes, I’m affraid it’s so.
Stephan,
I thought about write this control for other platforms too but I will wait some months until fully sure there are no “drastic” changes on Vista.
Jose,
That will certainly be appreciated!
