Uwe,

> Is there a solution for XP, maybe to get the checkbox working as well ?

We have not found it :-( It is ok for Vista, but it is not ok for XP.

>
Is it possible, to change the textcolor of RADIO, CHECKBOX and SAY at runtime ?
>

oControl:SetColor( ... )
oControl:Refresh()

Transparent Checkbox
Posted: Thu Oct 30, 2008 10:55 PM

Antonio,

Say, radio and text works well in transparent-mode with XP.
Only the Checkbox-transparent-text doesn't work.

A easy solution ?

In resources :
I disconnect the text from the Checkbox ( no text ).
Next I resize the checkbox to the box-size ( keeping only the square ).
In the screenshot, I didn't resize exactly, to show what i mean.
Next stepp : I Show the needed text next to the checkbox as extra text.

In XP the checkbox with text is shown correct now.

XP- SCREENSHOT

Hi

This is the result of a simple work around to paint RADIOS/CHECKBOXES/SAYS/GROUPS/IMAGES and other controls
on gradient dialogs.

This work around is tested in WIN98, WINXP NOT TESTED ON VISTA.

In case anybody needs any help in this regard, they are welcome.

Hello RAMESHBABU,

I have all Windows-versions installed.

Hello RAMESHBABU!

Many thanks for your reply!
I tested your solution on vista and 2000. On 2000 it is not functioning. On Vista is functioning but if the checkbox is clicked, the old and the new text is shown!

DLL problem ?
Posted: Fri Oct 31, 2008 04:47 PM

Hello Günther,

I think, Microsoft changed a DLL belongs to the display, because of
all the different results.
Some DLL's can transfered to other window-version without problem.
Maybe i can find out searching in Internet, the name of the DLL
changed in VISTA.
