New Bars Used

edited February 2006 in General
Is there any way of configuring these so that they fill the entire bar. The
reason for this is that I want them to look like the rest of my app.

    The new RB 10 user interface supports themes (i.e. skins). The style of the
    tools is rendered by the selected theme. The OfficeXP and Default themes
    have the look that you are describing.

    From the Report Designer, select View | Themese and then choose the OfficeXP
    or Default themes.

    Once you choose a theme, the name will be saved to RBuilder.ini and
    therefore used the next time you run the app.

    Nard,

    No wasn't what I wanted. Do we programatically have access to any of the bar
    properties?

    Can we also disable the changing of themes in end user reporting?

    The toolbars in the Design workspace are the same width as they were in the
    last version. That is so that they can be docked side by side. Perhaps you
    are referring to the previewer. The Previewer has a true toolbar now, where
    as prior versions it was a panel with buttons. We changed it to be a toolbar
    so that it looks more like MS Office apps. The preview is a plug-in class
    that can be replaced. The source code to the ancestor classes resides in
    ppPreview.pas. The preview manages the viewer, toolbar, outline, etc.

    Let me know more precisely what aspects you are wanting to change....


    TppDesigner.Menu provides access to the menu bar. From there you can
    traverse the items and set their visibility.
