Colored Tabs

[MichaelMo]

I have just about finished upgrading a Fivewin application from 16 to 32 bits, but there is one custom written object that was used in 16 bits that doesn't seem to have a 32 bit equivalent. It is a custom written folder class that was evidently created by Elliott Whitticar that allowed for "tabcolors", without changing the color of the whole folder. This custom folder class added a great deal to the visuals of the various screens, and quite frankly the 32 bit version is considerably less visual appealing with only gray tabs. Is there a replacement library out there that allows for only the folder tabs to have color, without making the entire folder that color?

Some Years ago, I used this Class as well.
Until now, there is no Solution for it.

The new Ribbonbar works with colored Folder-Tabs.
Maybe it is possible, to transfer the Logic to the TFolder-Class ( to Antonio ) ?



Best Regards

Thanks for the update. I appreciate it.

Michael,

Native Windows folders don't allow to change tabs colors.

But you can use bitmaps for each one, so the bitmap colors may be of help. Please review FWH\samples\TestFold.prg
