  • ButtonControls 1.8.3

    Version 1.8.3 of the ButtonControls library has been released. It fixes two bugs. One of them could lead to crashes. From what I can tell this happened very rarely. I never had such a crash and within 6,5 years I received only one report of such a crash (which made me aware of the problem in the first place).
    The other bug that has been fixed has been introduced with version 1.8.2 and affected windowless controls (e.g. the VB6 Image control) inside the Frame control. These controls did not raise mouse events anymore.

    As no problems have been found, I’ve added Windows 8 to the list of supported operating systems.

  • Animation 2.5.0, ButtonControls 1.8.1, EditControls 1.8.0, TrackBar 1.5.1

    I’ve released new versions of Animation, ButtonControls, EditControls and TrackBar. All controls come with improved drawing code which fixes a couple of problems that could occur with version 6.0 of comctl32.dll.
    You might wonder what happened to ButtonControls 1.8.0. Well, I released it yesterday and an hour later I had an idea how the drawing performance of the Frame control can be improved extremely while making it more robust against drawing issues at the same time. I could have canceled the release, but this would have produced some chaos in my source code repository.
    EditControls 1.8.0 contains an interesting new VB6 sample project: A search box that looks and feels like the search box of Windows 7 Explorer. It also requires the ToolBarControls library and runs on Windows Vista/7 only with Aero Glass being activated – that’s the price for using modern API calls.

  • ButtonControls 1.7.0, ToolBarControls 1.0.2

    Happy new year everyone!

    I’ve released a new version of the ButtonControls library. It fixes only one bug, but lots of code has changed, therefore it is version 1.7.0 instead of 1.6.2.
    The ToolBarControls library has been updated to version 1.0.2. It fixes a couple of minor bugs.

  • Animation 2.3.1, ButtonControls 1.6.1, ComboListBoxControls 1.2.1, DateTimeControls 1.2.2

    I’ve released some updates. They don’t contain new features, but fix several bugs.

    More updates will come soon, so stay tuned.

  • Animation 2.3.0, ButtonControls 1.6.0, ComboListBoxControls 1.2.0, DateTimeControls 1.2.0, EditControls 1.6.0

    Happy new year to everyone!

    I have released new versions of some controls. I fixed several bugs, including crashes (which did not happen often though). I also migrated to Visual C++ 2010. Unfortunately this also means that Windows 2000 is not supported any longer, because the compiler doesn’t support it anymore.

  • ButtonControls 1.5.1, ComboListBoxControls 1.1.3, ExplorerListView 1.0.0

    I released some updates which fix various bugs. The update for ButtonControls also brings an interesting new VB6 sample that demonstrates how to implement a color chooser drop-down button using ButtonControls.
    As only one bug has been reported for the RC1, ExplorerListView now is final.

  • ButtonControls 1.5.0

    I’ve released version 1.5.0 of ButtonControls. Now it’s possible to apply Unicode strings at design time and to share a single image list between multiple controls without losing the capability of using different icons for each control. Although this sounds like only a small improvement, it required me to write a lot of code.

  • Animation 2.2.1, ButtonControls 1.4.3, ComboListBoxControls 1.1.0, DateTimeControls 1.1.1, EditControls 1.4.2

    Happy new year!

    I’ve released updates of Animation, ButtonControls, ComboListBoxControls, DateTimeControls and EditControls. The ComboListBoxControls update is a larger one and includes a new feature. The other updates contain minor fixes and tweaks only.
    I’ve also started to ship stripped debug symbol files (*.pdb) with the binaries. This will give you more detailed stack traces when creating crash dumps or debugging your program with a symbolic debugger like Visual C++.

  • ButtonControls 1.4.2, EditControls 1.4.1

    I’ve released updates of ButtonControls and EditControls. For ButtonControls, I mainly improved the data-binding support of the CheckBox control. For EditControls, I mainly fixed some serious drawing issues that had been introduced with version 1.4.0. See the changelogs for details.

  • Animation 2.2.0, ButtonControls 1.4.1, EditControls 1.4.0, StatusBar 1.2.0

    I’ve released updates of Animation, ButtonControls, EditControls and StatusBar. Animation, ButtonControls and StatusBar got the usual bugfixes. As for the controls released two weeks ago, I could lower the usage of GDI objects.

    Animation and StatusBar support Windows 7 now, too. EditControls got some new features. See the changelog for details.
