Hi all I have a program that originally was created in -98 with Delphi 3 (on Windows NT) Since then we have moved from Delphi 3 to Delphi 5 and now Delphi 2006 (we will soon upgrade to D2009) and the OS has been upgraded to XP.
But the program still looks the same as it did in -98. No "XP-look-and-feel" at all. Now we want to upgrade the GUI to look like a real XP-program. That includes everything from menus to buttons and now I have a couple of questions on how to do this. 1. How can I get a menu that looks like the one in Microsoft Word or the one in Delphi itself? My menu is still grey and rather ugly compared to Delphi's. 2. I have tried the "XP-manifest" component but it seems that certain components don't repaint themselves in XP-way. The background colour of the component is still grey instead of the more white colour that is on the other components. The background colour of the components is usually set to clBtnFace. 3. Is it easier to get the XP-look-and-feel with D2009 than D2006? Can someone tell me what to do to get the XP-style in an easy way? Is there some websites out there where I can find information about this?` Thanks in advance. //Jesper Stenlund _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list -> [email protected] http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/delphi
