------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Jul 6 06:42:30 +0000 2007 ------- When drawing a control in the dialog editor, some controls can be easily identified, such as the frame control or the pushbutton. However, many controls just appear as white boxes on the dialog editor, others do not even have a different background color or a frame. Take the new tree control as sample. If you have several of these controls there is no way of distinguishing them unless you open the property browser for the control. Attaching screenshot to illustrate the issue, the small pictures are numbered, description follows here: 1) Two controls on a dialog in design mode - one is invisible, one is - you might want to guess 2) Selected both, there really are two controls, no joke! 3) Suggested solution 1: Take the tiny picture from the formcontrols palette and place it in the center of the control (unscaled), give the area a background color and a border 4) Suggested Solution 2: Draw a bitmap into the area of the control that indicates its type (scaled) with a border --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
