TRzPagePanel Pages: No Transparency Property.

[Steve Gill]

Hi Ray,

Why don’t the TRzPagePanel pages have a Transparency property?

Also, the pages don’t seem to correctly respond to VCL themes.

Regards,

Steve

Hi Steve,
Do you mean the TRzTabSheet controls used in the TRzPageControl? What are you trying to accomplish with your interface?
There is no Transparent property of the TRzTabSheet because frankly, transparency in the VCL is pretty much a hack or a simulation at best. And the structure of a page control (with embedded) tab sheets makes that even more complicated.
You may be able to get the effect you are wanting by handling the painting events of the TRzPageControl. I did this for a project I worked on years ago. I can try to dig up the code, if it is similar to what you are trying to accomplish.

Hi Ray,

I use TRzPageControl a lot for displaying several “screens” (for want of a better word) on the one form. I guess it’s sort of wizard-like.

In some cases the colour of the pages/tabsheets didn’t match the theme being used.  I was going to attach screenshots but your forum won’t even allow 50KB images as they are too large apparently.

Anyway, I have gone in another direction now so it’s all good.

Regards,

Steve
