Change the color of title bar forms

[Mercury37]

Hi:

How i can change the color of title bars forms?

I need some forms in the application with diferents color in the title bar.

I made a forms "simulated" removing the title bar, and drawing my own, but obviusly, lost the capacities of forms like move, minimize, etc.

Thanks

The is controled by your Windows Settings not by VFP.

I have an ocx which can manipulate the colors of the titlebar. Perhaps if you can provide me with your email address, I can share it with you.

Hi mgagnon:

You rigth... every body know that.

The point is exactly this...

If change the aparience of title bar, change all windows. I need change the color forms individualy.

Regards

Mercury37,

BTW, the ocx applies to VFP7 and up. VFP6 doesn't support the command:

thisform.olecontrol1.gradient(thisform)

Unless if you can figure a work around for this.


Enjoy it.

That was my point exactly. It does not follow the "The Windows Interface Guidelines for Software Design".

Hi Mike!

Thanks again, and you rigth again.

Is my client whos request this feature in the aplication. Forms with diferents colors in the title bar.

The Windows Interface Guidelines for Software Design sugest the things "must be do". Now, i "can" change the color of the title bar, ignoring for the moment the Guide.

Thanks Again Mike!

And Sorry by my English
