  • DateTimeControls 1.3.1

    I’ve released version 1.3.1 of the DateTimeControls library. It fixes the problem that the MinDate and MaxDate properties did not really work at runtime.

  • ButtonControls 1.8.2

    I’ve released version 1.8.2 of ButtonControls. This release fixes two bugs in the Frame control related to keyboard focus. The more serious of both problems occured in MDI applications only and caused child controls of the Frame control to lose keyboard focus on double-click. The other problem was a bit less serious: The Frame control could receive keyboard focus by double-clicking it.

  • ExplorerListView 1.4.0, StatusBar 1.3.2

    I’ve released versions 1.4.0 of ExplorerListView and 1.3.2 of StatusBar. ExplorerListView has been extended with a couple of new events that are raised if a group has been collapsed/expanded, if a group has gained or lost the keyboard focus and if the selection state of a group has changed.
    The StatusBar control has been fixed so that it no longer raises the Validate event of the currently focused control if the StatusBar is double-clicked.

  • ToolBarControls 1.0.3

    I’ve released a new version of the ToolBarControls library. It works-around the problem that the background of stand-alone toolbars wasn’t drawn properly by default.
    This version also comes with a new VB6 sample which demonstrates how to build a breadcrumb bar like that in Windows Explorer. Here’s a screenshot of the sample:

  • ProgressBar 2.4.0

    I’ve released version 2.4.0 of the ProgressBar control. It comes with a neat new feature: On Windows 7 it can display the progress in the application’s taskbar button.

  • Animation 2.5.0, ButtonControls 1.8.1, EditControls 1.8.0, TrackBar 1.5.1

    I’ve released new versions of Animation, ButtonControls, EditControls and TrackBar. All controls come with improved drawing code which fixes a couple of problems that could occur with version 6.0 of comctl32.dll.
    You might wonder what happened to ButtonControls 1.8.0. Well, I released it yesterday and an hour later I had an idea how the drawing performance of the Frame control can be improved extremely while making it more robust against drawing issues at the same time. I could have canceled the release, but this would have produced some chaos in my source code repository.
    EditControls 1.8.0 contains an interesting new VB6 sample project: A search box that looks and feels like the search box of Windows 7 Explorer. It also requires the ToolBarControls library and runs on Windows Vista/7 only with Aero Glass being activated – that’s the price for using modern API calls.

  • TabStrip 1.5.1

    I’ve fixed a tiny, drag’n’drop related bug in the TabStrip control.

  • ComboListBoxControls 1.2.2, ExplorerListView 1.3.2, ShellBrowserControls 1.2.1

    I’ve released a couple of updates. ComboListBoxControls 1.2.2 fixes an important bug in the DriveComboBox control which did not display network drives that are currently not available.
    ExplorerListView 1.3.2 fixes the methods for finding items, which did not work on Windows Vista and newer.
    ShellBrowserControls 1.2.1 is the largest update today. It fixes several bugs, for instance Tiles view did not work for the recycle bin. It also improves support for dragging items from different namespaces or displaying a shell context menu for such items. However, the most important improvements have been made in the area of network drives. Previous versions became extremely slow if your system contained network drives and you opened “My Computer”. Performance in this area has been improved massively.

  • ExplorerListView 1.3.1, ExplorerTreeView 2.2.1

    I’ve fixed a couple of tiny, drag’n’drop related bugs in ExplorerListView and ExplorerTreeView.

  • Animation 2.4.0

    I’ve released another update. Version 2.4.0 of the Animation control comes with rewritten background drawing code which should fix a couple of rare drawing issues on Windows Vista and newer.
