Hello.
Oleg had mentioned to me that the Maxthon Browser uses codejock controls, MFC I think. And I was wondering, Maxthon is able to use it's own titlebar/window borders and what not. Is it possible for me to do so? Thanks and reguards. ------------- Product: Xtreme Suite Pro (Active-X), Version 15.3.1 Platform: Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (64Bit) & Windows XP Mode SP3 (32Bit) Language: Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 |

Hi, You can try our SkinFramework or Office2007 frame from CommandBars. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

I have tried both. and as I mentioned before, I'm not to huge of a fan of the Office2007 look. Is there any way I can create a custom one? in the fashion of the Office2007? ------------- Product: Xtreme Suite Pro (Active-X), Version 15.3.1 Platform: Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (64Bit) & Windows XP Mode SP3 (32Bit) Language: Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 |

You can use the Skin Builder tool that comes with the suite if you are graphically inclined.

Alright folks. Let me rephrase what I meant. 
as you can see, the caption buttons are definately made by the command bars. Or atleast I think so in best judgement. And notice how the Active menu is "In" the title bar, rather than below it. THis is what I meant. btw, thanks for the link Oleg, that's some nice .mssstyles.  ------------- Product: Xtreme Suite Pro (Active-X), Version 15.3.1 Platform: Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (64Bit) & Windows XP Mode SP3 (32Bit) Language: Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 |

They use our MFC version where each element/theme can be customized. Its not so flexible in ActiveX version :-( ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Thanks Oleg for clearing that up for me, I'll just have to get the MFC edition sometime sooner or later.
