IMPORTANT!When using multiple skinned windows in a single project,
the main window must always be skinned first.New constants used in Version 7.00To be used with the new
skAnchorID API
const int AT_TOP = 1;
const int AT_LEFT = 2;
const int AT_RIGHT = 4;
const int AT_BOTTOM = 8;
const int AT_TOPLEFT = 3;
const int AT_TOPRIGHT = 5;
const int AT_BOTTOMLEFT = 10;
const int AT_BOTTOMRIGHT = 12;
const int AT_ALL = 15;
const int DOCK_TOP = 256;
const int DOCK_LEFT = 512;
const int DOCK_RIGHT = 1024;
const int DOCK_BOTTOM = 2048;
const int DOCK_FILL = 3840;New Version 7.00 APIsBOOL skAnchorID(HWND hWnd, UINT uID, UINT uFlag)To anchor a specific control
uID within its
hWnd parent container,
using any or a combination of the above constant
uFlag.
BOOL skAnchorInit(HWND hWnd)Init/Reset Anchor properties
BOOL skAnchorResize(HWND hWnd, BOOL bRepaint)Resize the child controls, if ever you need to resize the main
hWnd window yourself.
BOOL skAnchorRemoveAll(HWND hWnd)Remove (delete) all anchor properties for the specific
hWnd handle.
long skUseAnchorMode(HWND hWnd, IN long UseMode)Use one of the exclusive constant below.
const int CANCELMODE = -1;
const int ANCHORMODE = 32;
const int HOMOTHETIC = 64;When using
ANCHORMODE, it must be used after you setup all the individual skAnchorID properties.
HOMOTHETIC is exclusive, and couldn't be inter-mixed with other properties.
All childs controls belonging to hWnd are resized using an homothetic float ratio.
The original
float ratio = 1.0f, that is the size of the window when calling skSkinWindow.
(This size is also used to compute the minimum WM_GETMINMAXINFO track size).
void skSetListViewImage(WCHAR* FullPathName, long ReadWriteFlag)A ListViewImage is a single .png bitmap composed of different icons, each one must fit within a square size being the same for all images.
To be used in conjunction with a
#{TAG} message, where TAG could be any letter in the range A-Z. The TAG must be inserted directly into the string used for a specific cell.
Example of image list:
void skSetToolBarImage(WCHAR* FullPathName, long ReadWriteFlag)Same as above but for a ToolBar control.
The TAG must be inserted directly into each tool text name.
void skGetWindowSize(IN HWND hWnd, OUT long &x, OUT long &y, OUT long &WindowWidth, OUT long &WindowHeight)The returned parameters are converted from WinLIFT SystemMetrics into standard window coordinates, in case you want to restore the window size and location in a next session.
BOOL skSkinChange(IN WCHAR* zSkinFile)Change the skin theme on the fly, using a full qualified path to a WinLIFT .sks file.
WinLIFT.chmThe previous
WinLIFT.chm file from version 4.87 is attached to this post, the existing API have been preserved, except that all strings in Version 7.00 require the use of UNICODE (WCHAR, WSTRINGZ).
