    Rotating bmp's and jpg's

    I found another problem using GDI, since the bitmap class from this class can't rotate the bitmap to any angle. The library can rotate all the drawing space at any angle, a bad ideea since I always have to update the client window. Their must a better way for rotating a bitmap, a faster method...

    Loading animated GIF's

    Nope... their saying "just drop it on your form, select the image and enable the application". It is called TBMGifControl, so it should be added tot he form, but I have no ideea how. The site gives me a BMGifControl.cpp, BMGifControl.h and a BMGifControl,dcr... Anyway, maybe I'll find another...

    Loading animated GIF's

    Thanks for that site. My problem is that on the site it sais "just drop the control on the form", but I don't know how to do that. In the zip there is the cpp and h of the class, and a file dcr(Delphi component resource). How do I "drop" the control on the form?? I tried it on CBuilder 5 and 6...

I found some code that works, but only in Win32 aplications.I know that it's not that easy, because it's not open source... If someone can help...

    Arrays of Controls?

    ...For example if your control is a button and you want to see the names of all the buttons(in a TMemo): __fastcall TForm1::TForm1(TComponent* Owner) : TForm(Owner) { list = new TList(); } //--------------------------------------------------------------------------- void __fastcall...

    Arrays of Controls?

    There is an easy way to store them in one place, just create a TList component: TList* list = new TList(); //if you want to add, for example, a Tbutton and a TMemo: list->Add(Button); list->Add(Memo); However, the problem is retrieving the pointers from the array, since the list->Items[]...

    how can i send a dos app paramaters

    The problem is that the function system requires a pointer to char, but you are giving her a AnsiString. Try: system(strcat("ping ",xxx.c_str())); Because you can't add to pointers to char, i'm guessing that's the error you got when using "ping "+xxx.c_str(). If you wan't to record the...

    TMemo "No parent window" problem

    Ok. My bad. Maybe I didn't copy the exact code that you said, but i got the same error until I changed the parent to TForm.

    TMemo "No parent window" problem

    Hy. The problem is that the parent of the memo should be a TWinControl, but the Tpanel class is derived from TControl, so the parent is usually the Form where you want to show the memo. Change mem->parent = Form1(or the name of your form) and comment the line "delete mem" to see it work. Sorry...

    Default directory names

    I am not quite sure if I understand the question. Well if you create a setup for your program, when the user installs the program you already know the partition where he installed it, since he specified the "install path". I haven't yet found how to query windows to tell you the number of...

    Custom Hints

    ...like drawing on a canvas, you should probably write the OnMouseMove event for your form like this: void __fastcall TForm1::FormMouseMove(TObject*Sender,TShiftState Shift, int X, int Y) { if(X >= Button1->Left && X<= Button1->Left + Button1- >Width && Y >=...

    Default directory names

    Check this site out: http://kennethhunt.com/archives/000933.html These are actually enviroment variables.For example, SYSTEMDRIVE would return "C:" if the system is installed on C. The same for WINDIR.For seeing the operating system see the variable OS(Microsoft family). Unix also has these...
