But you remove the dependency on WindowBlinds this way.</p> <p>For a developer, there are always choices. The people who implement WindowBinds have to handle some details, but once they do, everybody else can leverage it and use easier tools. I was exploring things from the perspective of somebody who wanted to understand how something was done as a developer, either to avoid a dependency, or to understand how the dependency might be working.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=5100890" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/cjacks/archive/2006/03/01/541384.aspx#5055809Sat, 22 Sep 2007 17:43:05 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:5055809John<p>Wow, that's complicated, it's almost easier to modify or create buttons using utilities like WindowsBlinds. &nbsp;</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=5055809" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/cjacks/archive/2006/03/01/541384.aspx#544479Mon, 06 Mar 2006 17:31:58 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:544479Chris Jackson - MSFTExcellent points, Tom. I think it's worthwhile to explore modifying any pixel offsets to address high DPI scenarios, as well as discuss accessibility, in a Part 3 of the series.<div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=544479" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/cjacks/archive/2006/03/01/541384.aspx#542979Fri, 03 Mar 2006 19:35:35 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:542979Tom GlennCool effect. One thing though, I see you are manipulating pixel offsets which says that this would likely have problems in high DPI scenarios, also I didn't see any mention of what happens when accessibility is turned on.<div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=542979" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/cjacks/archive/2006/03/01/541384.aspx#542434Fri, 03 Mar 2006 00:52:31 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:542434Christophe Lauer<img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=542434" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/cjacks/archive/2006/03/01/541384.aspx#542370Thu, 02 Mar 2006 23:23:42 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:542370Kim Lund JohansenNice<div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=542370" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/cjacks/archive/2006/03/01/541384.aspx#541518Wed, 01 Mar 2006 23:41:26 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:541518Michell Cronberg<img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=541518" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/cjacks/archive/2006/03/01/541384.aspx#541479Wed, 01 Mar 2006 22:44:48 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:541479Pedro Silva's BlogChris Jackson has two posts about Gel Buttons that he's created for WinForms.
