See attached file. Thanks. |

|
I'm still not seeing the point: what specifically would you like us to add from JvXPBar to JvNavPane? |
|
|
Sorry for not being clear. More like having the ability to create JvXPBar as a property of JvNavPanelPage instead of having to use two separate components. So you'll have something similar to: JvNavPanelPage.Category := TJvNavPanelPageBar Where Category will be a collection of TJvNavPanelPageBar and TJvNavPanelPageBar will emulate look, feel and functionality of jvXPBar. Thanks |

|
That would be a mistake and don't see us doing that. |
|
|
Out of curiousity, why would that be a mistake? Thanks for your consideration. |
|

Several reasons: 1. The package containing JvNavPane would require the user to also install the package containing JvXPBar (greater dependency = bad) 2. Users not interested in JvXPBars in Nav Panes still has to drag the implementation into their exe's (bigger=bad) 3. They both perform distinct functions, just as a button and an edit. Of course, you could add a button to an edit (and we have components that do) but then there should be a point to it, i.e there should be functionality attached to the button/edit that wouldn't be there otherwise (no gain=bad). 4. Adding JvXPBar support to JvNavPane doesn't accomplish anything expect (maybe!) saving the developer a few mouse clicks (laziness=bad<g>). In short, there is no point to it and it would limit the usefulness of the control. |

Okay, I know I am asking for features I cann't implement, but: 1. I am not asking that you incorporate JvXPBar, I am asking you create a bar with similar features to JvXPBar - (zero dependency) 2. See 1. 3. I am thinking out of the box here - more like a Swiss army knife :-) Put a JvNavigationPane on a form, add a new page, add a JvXPBar. Visualize it and imaging there is a method to hide from the splitter down on jvNavigationPane, what do you have? With one component, I can have XP or Outlook 2003 just by changing a property. (gain, gain, gain) 4. Okay I'll admit to my laziness, but I think in this case you'll agree it is more work if I am creating this in code with 2 components versus one component. More room for error. I really admire your leadership and the good work you and the rest of the team put into JVCL. Thank you very much and bye for now. |

What you are basically saying is that you would like to have a means of putting the active button on top of the control instead of leaving it at the bottom, just as is done in a JvOutlookBar and at the same time modify the drawing? Well, that's a whole other matter and I can provide a simpler answer: Sorry, to much work, but if you're keen on it yourself, no one is stopping you :) |
