I’ve released three new controls. The LabelControls library contains a SysLink control which can be used to display text with embedded clickable hyper links. The links can have a context menu and a tool tip text.
The second control in this library is the WindowedLabel. It is similar to the Label control of VB6, but has more events. Also, unlike the VB6 control, it creates a window which increases the overhead, but also makes the control more accessible from the world of the Win32-API.
If you need a lightweight replacement for the VB6 Label control, you should use the WindowlessLabel. As the name suggests, it is a windowless control. Compared to the VB6 control, it gives more control over the appearance of the text and provides more events.
Of course all events support Unicode.
