Description

A shaking form demonstrates how you can make the form shake, currently it contains two buttons with different speed but you can easily adapt it to suit your own. Maybe this effect would be the best utilized in the oncreate event of the form, or maybe after entering a false password. Again a simple but very effective form effect

Description

Delphi provides a rudimentary mechanism for reusing form designs - instead of placing controls inside a form you place them inside a relocatable frame. However, this approach has limitations. Quite apart from the fact that its implementation is somewhat buggy in older versions of the compiler it is intended to allow reuse, not dynamic alteration of form contents.

Such dynamic form alteration is required, for instance, to create an "Administration Console" style of interface. This interface design - probably first made popular in Microsoft's Internet Information Server (IIS) - consists of a treeview or listbox control running down the left hand side of a form with a panel to the right the contents of which change dynamically as the user selects different items from the tree/list view. We demonstrate how this can be done in Delphi.

This form, when right clicked on the title bar rolls itself up and when clicked again rolls itself down. Just example code on how to create this yourself. It shows how easy it can be to spice up your program yourself, adding form effects, another way to describe this effect is to fold and unfold, by clicking on the title bar. Left click closes the program but that is not necessary for the program to work Again, do not rely on third party components if you don't have to.

Compatible with Windows 7.

Description

The well known roll up and roll down effect, can easily be achieved by looking at this form and its code, by right clicking on the title bar it rolls down, and right clicking again makes it roll up. This nice effect behaves smoothly so another name could be form fold up and fold down but I liked mine better.

Fully compatible with Delphi 7 up until Delphi 2010, and works in windows 7 as well Again, do not rely on third party components if you don’t have to.

And also, to make the Registry version of this example, I added Registry to the uses classes and for the Inifile version, I added, you guessed it, Inifiles."
