Hello, I'm a newbie in using the CodeJock. I'm now working to implement the CJ onto an old style application.

The toolbar conversion was quite easy (still, why does the CJ toolbar hasn't the old toolbar parameters? Height for example)

The panel from status bar also. The old code used a lot the Left
property, while the new one does not, so I have to sum the widths...

The measuring also isn't in the VB unit (however is that called), but
in pixels, so to be compatible I have to do some transformations.

My next step is to implement some docking panels so that they look
transparent when floating and opaque when docked (the target for those
panels is that they will look like in Paint .NET, transparent when
floating and no mouse over, and opaque otherwise). I found some
functions from user32 library that sets the opacity of a form (in fact,
the handle has to be provided)

If there is a simple way to implement this, feel free to share it

Thanks
