Hi,

After applying a skin to my vb6 project the window manipulation commands on the mdi window break. i.e. Me.Arrange FormArrangeConstants.vbTileVertical does not work?!?



Anyone have any ideas?

Cheers

Hi,

I have created a SQL Query Tool that uses this option and it also uses the SkinFramework control. However I don't have any issues using the following code:



    Me.Arrange vbTileVertical

Hi Xander75,

Does my example project work on your version 13.4.  I'm currently using 13.3 and cannot upgrade as we are in a code freeze for one of our other products.

If it doesn't can you see any differences between the code?

I know its going to a tiny thing I've done wrong but I'm pulling my hair out and I just can not see it!??!

Hi Hemesh,
 
Your Project did not work, however I figured out the reason why... but I believe this was removed in response to the MDI Skinning Issue you posted earlier in the following link: http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=17297&title=mdi-skinning-issue
 
To get it to work I added the following line of code: 


    SkinFramework1.ApplyWindow Me.hWnd
This makes the vbCascade, vbTileHorizontal, vbTileVertical work, however this means the MDI Skinning Issue you had is back!
 
So in order to resolve both issues I did the following:
 


Private Sub MDIForm_Load()


    ' Load your SkinFramework


    SkinFramework1.LoadSkin App.Path & "\Styles\" & "Office2007.cjstyles", "NORMALBLACK.INI"
    SkinFramework1.ApplyWindow Me.hWnd
    SkinFramework1.ApplyOptions = xtpSkinApplyMetrics Or xtpSkinApplyFrame Or xtpSkinApplyColors Or xtpSkinApplyMenus
    SkinFramework1.RemoveWindow Me.hWnd




End Sub
Notice the lines in red? Add these to your project and this will resolve both issues in one hit!

Hi Hemesh,

Yeah I thought so too! But I am glad I could help.

P.S. If you're finished with this thread could you please change the Title to have the word "[SOLVED]". It would be nice if a thread that is solved can be clearly seen by it's title in these forums as it would help with searching and helping others. Sorry to nag! Wink
