New FTDN March/Marzo 2012 (FWH 12.03)

March 2012
==========

* Fix: Class TDatePick was skiping two months when clicking on the arrows. Now it is ok.

* New: Very good ADO example, with incremental search. Thanks to Rick Lipkin:
samples/AdoRick.prg and AdoRick.rc

* New: samples/TestSpl7.prg shows how to manage 3 splitters and 4 panels to implement
a "H" layout. We use this layout in samples\sciedit2.prg to avoid the use of a MDI frame but
keep managing multiple editors.

* New: functions ScreenWidth() and ScreenHeight() return the width and height of the main
desktop in pixels.

* Fix: Class TDatePick was not paiting properly on TRANSPARENT dialogs. Now it is ok.
Please review samples\joseluis.prg

* Fix: XBrowse cell editing using EDIT_LISTBOX style, was showing a left moved bitmap.
Now it is ok.

* New: samples\BmpToHex.prg generates the Hex string definition from the bytes of a
bitmap.

* Fix: There was a bug in function SkinButtons() that made the buttons actions to be fired
twice. Now it is ok.

* Enhancement: We continue the development of Class TEdit, that allow to use Windows
standard Edit controls without having to use an embedded Harbour GET. This provides
a better Windows standard behavior compatibility. Please review samples\edit.prg

* New: samples\winrt.prg shows how to use the Windows 8 Metro API (WinRT). This
example only works in Windows 8.

Important: In order to build this example you need to create the import library
combase.lib and link it from samples\buildh.bat. Here you have the instructions to
build combase.lib:

* Fix: There was a bug in Class TGroup Method Paint() if the app is Themed and the Group
uses a different font from its container dialog. Now it is ok.
