Description

It takes away the hassles of having to create a splash screen for your program. Create a picture, and assign to this component. 2 lines of coding are all you need - BlendIn() and BlendOut().

Updates / Features:

• Like the splash screen of 3DMark2000, it alphablends with desktop (fades in and out).
• Utilizes the MMX instructions where possible.
• Uses an extremely fast algorithm to blend if MMX hardware is not present (for CPUs optimized for 32-bit, ie. Pentium PRO, non-MMX is almost as fast as MMX at the same clock speed).
• Runs on Windows 98 / 98SE / ME / NT4 sp4 / NT4 sp5 / 2000 / XP / 2003.
• Ease of use - 2 lines of coding.
• Uses TGraphics component to store picture - assign picture like you've always been doing for TImage.
• All known bugs from previous version has been fixed.
• Includes a demo that shows how easy it is to use this component.

Description

WinForms components normally only have FixedSingle, Fixed3D and none border styles. The results are very out of fashion forms, expecially with Win 2K.

The funny thing is that .NET WinForms provides a class (ControlPaint) that can draw nice looking borders. Why they did not used it for the components is a mistery. Anyway, using an extender provider something can be done (see demo project and form image).

Unfortunately, different components behave differently (combo boxes do not even have border style property!) so some experimenting is required to obtain better looking forms.
