- K&J PicWin
- (Native Delphi VCL)
- by Joseph C. Keller
- ⌐ 1995 / 1996
-
- --------
- CONTENTS
- --------
- The contents of your .ZIP file should include these (3) Files:
- (K&J EDIT CONTROLS' COMPONENT FILES)
- KJPicWin.DCR KJPicWin.DCU
-
- (NOTES & STUFF)
- ReadMe.TXT
-
-
- ----------------
- PRE-INSTALLATION
- ----------------
- Make sure all of your .DCU and .DCR files exist within the same
- directory.
-
- To be safe, make a backup copy of your current Delphi component
- library (CompLib.DCL), usually located in the '\Delphi\Bin\'
- directory.
-
-
- ------------
- INSTALLATION
- ------------
- To install your K&J PicWin Control, start by selecting 'Install Components'
- from the 'Options' menu. The Install Components dialog box will appear
- on your screen.
-
- Next, click the 'Add' button to open the Add Module dialog box. In this
- dialog box you can either use the 'Browse' button to locate the K&J .DCU
- file units or type the path and name in the edit box.
-
- If the unit in question is located on a path not currently included in the
- search path, Delphi will automatically take care of appending the new path
- to the search path. (Take note, however, that the maximum size of the search
- path is only 125 characters. If the search path contains more than 125
- characters, you will encounter an 'Identifier Expected' compiler error when
- trying to rebuild your component library.)
-
- After adding the K&J .DCU unit, click 'OK' in the Install Components
- dialog box and Delphi will rebuild its component library and add a new 'K&J'
- page to your component palette. Clicking on the 'K&J' component page will
- reveal one new control - 'KJPicWin'.
-
-
- -----
- USAGE
- -----
- K&J PicWin is a small, yet powerful control that encapsulates a TImage and
- two TPanel controls to generate a frame effect around your images. Now,
- every image can have it's own dynamic sizeable border and label.
- K&J PicWin is a great component for thumbnail images!
-
-
- ----------------------------
- REGISTERED VS. UN-REGISTERED
- ----------------------------
- Please be aware that the un-registered version of K&J PicWin will only
- work within the Delphi IDE. That is, Delphi must be running for K&J
- PicWin to work properly. This gives you, the developer, an excellent
- opportunity to try out K&J PicWin before you buy. If you attempt to
- run K&J PicWin from outside of the Delphi IDE, you will see a friendly
- message box displayed every time K&J PicWin is created. This is the only
- effect running K&J PicWin outside of the Delphi IDE has on a project.
