TabControlDesigner Release - Create GDI TabControls! - [Eprouvez] - Jun 4, 2012

TabControlDesigner


About
TabControlDesigner is a class used to create custom TabControls, it also comes with heaps of methods help simplify your code. I came up with this idea while ago to fix a problem I had, "TabControls can be really complicated or annoying to make", but wasn't sure on how to approach this problem. Thanks to Aeonhack and mavamaarten I was able to overcome my problem, and that's how TabControlDesigner was made. I used Aeonhacks ThemeBase as a kind of base for my class, and used mavamaartens custom TabControl for some properties, methods, and overrides.

TabControlDesigner Releases
Version 1.1.1: VB.Net / C#
Version 1.1.0: VB.Net / C#
Version 1.0.0: VB.Net / C#

Usage
You can use TabControlDesigner just like Aeonhacks ThemeBase, he has an introduction video which can be found on his thread here.
I will make a usage video as soon as I can.

Custom TabControls
If you make a TabControl and want it up here, let me know. I will work to make more custom TabControls, both public and private.

This is heading off topic but it's funny, they were my idols - Aeon, Vorfin, Nathan, Soul Collector - Until he fucked everyone around lol. Aeon and Nathan taught me everything about coding pretty much with their tutorials.

Vorfin was a great guy.. even got in and then out of a Staff position.. not quite sure where the guys at now. Aeon and nathan are still here though.

Couldn't have happened without you! Let me know if anyone has any suggestions of anything, would love to expand this project.


Update: Added Aeonhacks Bloom class, so you can now easily customize and share TabControl themes!

This is awesome stuff I found in HF again!

:-)

Thanks for the Guide!

It's unfortunate that only those of us who make themes can truly appreciate this, if it were a crypter source you would have 20 pages of replies by now.
