    Hi Serge :),

    I know that you are working on the new version of AlphaSkins, version 9.0 and I believe you are hoping to release it soon…

    I was just wondering if there are any new features that you are particularly proud of? Normally, new versions are incremental 8.47,8.48,8.49…8.54 etc but as you are soon to release a new 'branch' with v 9.0 I wonder if you give us a small idea of what we might expect?

    All the Best,

    Darren

    Hello Darren

    This version have a lot of improvements and new features, but package will be fully compatible with version 8.

    You will not have problems with that, I think.

    Here is a short list of changes: http://www.alphaskins.com/v9.txt

    Compiled demo: http://www.alphaskins.com/sfiles/900/askindemo.exe

    If you want I can give you this version already now.

    I think this is not an error, because a clear response is expected by the user. The user have only the choice between Yes and No, abort the action is not provided 🙂

    Yes, it's a behaviour of standard Windows MessageBox dialog (not Delphi).

    “Close” title icon is not disabled because standard ways for receiving of the icon state doesn't work there.

    Hi Serge,

    yep I'd love to get this version now if you could 🙂

    I had a look at the text file of the changes you linked to and I think, judging from what I can deduce from the new property names, that there are some really great new additions 🙂

    Regards

    Darren

    Hi Serge,

    I'd just like to congratulate you on today's release of AlphaControls 2014 (version 9.0).

    I took a look at the changes page

    http://www.alphaskins.com/showdoc.php?l=en&n=16

    and might I say an unreserved well done. Pure genius what you're doing at the moment.

    Looking forward to a productive and inspiring year 🙄 :a7: :a3:

    Regards

    Darren

    Using DisabledImages doesn't seem to work with 9.00beta, its always showing the enabled glyh even if the button of TsToolBar is disabled.

    Congrats for the new version. That looks very promising. One question though: are third party controls like VirtualExplorerTreeview and similar also handled? For example, can you change the scrollbar width of a third party control as well now? I don't want to install the beta just yet because of time constraints.

    Thanks

    Hello Serge,

    I like the new function for discoloring glyphs. You plan also discolor glyphs in menus, List- and TreeViews in the future? Or how I prepare a ImageList for discolored glyphs at runtime?

    Yes, discoloring of all glyphs is in plans.

    Yes, it's possible, you have two ways how to do it, I'll make a demo soon.
