Host Child Objects
: ctxFrame
will host child objects in development
environments that support ISimpleFrame. |
|
|
|
|
|
Inner and Outer Border
: Multiple styles for either inner or
outer borders such as "Single Line",
"None", "Raised", "Lowered", "Drop
Shadow" and "Inset". Width, distance
between borders, and colors for all
borders may be defined by the developer.
The drawing of individual border-sides
may be suppressed. |
|
|
|
|
|
Display Drag Bars : Add
single or double drag bars to make
ctxFrame look just like a toolbar. As a
toolbar, ctxFrame can host child
controls, making it easy to fine-tune
form designs. |
|
|
|
|
|
Display Styles
: The
main area of the control can be set for
modern Windows UI design. Current styles
and themes can be implemented
independent of operating system version. |
|
|
|
|
|
Internal Timer
: ctxFrame
includes its own timer which is
supported by start and stop methods, a
timer event, and a property to adjust
the interval between time events. |
|
|
|

without requiring the host language to
support transparency through its OLE
container. This allows transparency to
be provided to a larger number of
development environments. |
