Comments
The Picture2 property defines the Close button, Minimize button and Restore button graphic.
The Scrolling.Picture property defines the scroll button graphic.
The Picture2 property can be used to override the default Close button, Minimize button and the Restore button provided by a tab control. The refPictureObj object must represent a bitmap and cannot represent an icon or a metafile.
The bitmap represented by the refPictureObj object must contain three equal-sized images of the Close button, Minimize button and the Restore button. The first image is used for the Minimize button, the second image for the Restore button and the third for the Close button.
Sample Close button, Minimize button and Restore button image
The buttons are arranged horizontally in the bitmap, so the height of the bitmap is the height of one button and the width of the bitmap is three times the width of one button. The top, left pixel of each button image must contain the background color. This color will be replaced by the button's actual background color when the bitmap is displayed. The above sample contains 3 images (7 x 9 pixels).
If the Close button, Minimize button or the Restore button is disabled, the image defined using the Scrolling.Picture2Disabled property is used instead of this property. If Picture2Disabled does not define an image, the image defined using this property is painted in a "grayed" fashion".
The Picture2 property can be set to the value Nothing, which restores the tab control's default, built-in Close button, Minimize button and Restore button bitmap.
The height of the Close button, Minimize button, Restore button and tabs is adjusted if necessary so the complete button graphic can be displayed vertically and horizontally. If the Scrolling.CloseButtonFullSize property is set to True, the Close button, Minimize button and Restore button are made as square as possible.
Sample button bitmaps can be found in the product directory \Program Files\Softelvdm\SftTabs OCX 6.5\Images.
