Hey Dave - I believe the ProFox list posting at the bottom of this message
was from you. I was just trying to search for it on the ProFox Archives
again(just confirm that it actually was YOU that posted the original
message) - although, for some reason - the Archives Search seems to be
CHOKING on me right now - and I can't run ANY Searches!
Anyway - was just hoping to hear from you re:MS Metro & implementing it
under VFP.
Thanks in Advance!

Hey Dave - regarding this older posting of yours. I'm curious to know if you
have made more progress on implementing Metro style interfaces in VFP -
since, we (at my day job) - have this App that we are looking to run on a
Tablet - and I MUST give it a proper Overhaul ASAP!
Thanks in Advance!

To All,
I was just playing around with VFP last night after having developed my
first metro app in Visual
Studio last week and wondered how a Metro style interface could be
developed in VFP. A small video
of the results of my deliberations is at:
http://www.replacement-software.co.uk/VFP_Metro/
I haven't had time to add callouts and commentry etc just yet as the whole
project took up my time
(about 4 hours) but I will do once the classes are in a stable state at
which time I hope to have a
set of classes made that will allow Metro buttons and info to be easily put
into any VFP App simply
by dragging and dropping a Metro surface onto a form and polpulating it with
Geoups and Items
...(you can see this in the video).
The result so far are:
1. A scrollable Metro "desktop" so that you can hold more buttons than can
ve viewed on the desktop
2. Metro style buttons that can have the caption in either the centre or the
four corners of the
button as well as a relocatable picture on the button.
3. Metro Groups. Consisting of selections of metro buttons that can be
dragged and dropped within
the allocated group and re-ordered into a pre-defined column/row Metro
sequence.
4. The ability to drag/drop the Metro Groups around on the desktop
5. The ability to drag/drop Metro buttons around within their parent group
in real time ... and
then re-order the group
The next step is to give the Metro interface a "skinnable colour" property
that will be changeable
in real time ... this is done but I haven't had time to incorporate it as of
yet.
If anyone shows any interest in the video or the development then post on
here with regards to
possible enhancements etc. and comments will be gratefully accepted, good or
bad.
When I have a set of classes in workable form then I intend to post the
source on Codeplex with full
source.
The fox can still run with the best...
Have fun,
Dave

Kurt,
It was me and I will post it up. I wanted to do it today but we had a massive server outage last night and it's stocktake tomorrow soit will probably be over the weekend when I get a moment to breathe.

Hey Dave - thank you SO MUCH for getting back to me. And, you need not rush.
I just wanted to get in touch with you about this - so I kinda have it on
the back burner. I've already started making updates to this App to run
properly on Win8 on a Tablet - I just know that with some of your pieces
possibly put in place - it could improve some of the look & functionality of
the app. But, we aren't rushing big time on our end with moving forwards on
it - as I am already busy with another BIG project here.
So - again - no rush, take care of your problems on your end. I'm just glad
you have me in mind on this Metro stuff...
Thanks,
-K-
