mozilla activex control 1.7.1

Mozilla ActiveX Control - previous versions of Netscape Communicator/Navigator were arguably superior to IE as day to day browsers but they suffered through their immediate usability and modularity.

Although the Netscape browser was great as a standalone application, it wasnt possible to utilize that functionality in third party applications.

On the other hand, Internet Explorer shipped with an ActiveX control which allowed exactly that ability.

So what would it take for developers to use the Mozilla control as opposed to the IE control?

· An API close as possible to Internet Explorers for ease of porting
· Freely available source code to allow for bug fixing, customization, etc.
· A very small distributable - 3-4Mb (for a download containing just the Gecko embedding engine and not the full Mozilla) compared to the 10Mb+ required for IE
· State of the art rendering - exploit the speed and standards compliance of the Gecko rendering engine
· No more nasty IE license - have you read it?

AniGif Lite ActiveX Control will display a graphic from an animated or static Gif file and provide detailed info about the animation. Supports GIF87a and GIF89a formats.

This is the lite version of the powerful AniGifEx control, and it is mostly used just to display animations. The control supports:

Full control of the animation
Allows you to control everything about the animation. You can determine if it will start automatically, when it will start and stop, and gives you the ability to play individual frames or frames at any sequence.

Advanced sizing abilities
You can customize the relationship between the controls size, and its contents dimensions:
- Normal
The contents of the control does not affect the controls size.
- Auto
The control is automatically resized to the contents dimensions.
- Stretch
The control resizes (stretch/zoom) the graphic to fit the controls dimensions.

Drop target
The control can be set to accept Gif files as a result of a drag and drop operation. Just drop the dragged Gif file into the control and AniGif will process it and display the graphic or any animation.

Image file info
Provides information about the processed Gif file, such as images width and height, size of the image file, the number of colors the graphic uses, and the number of times an animation will loop.

Detailed frames info
Provides detailed information about each Frame in an animation, through its powerful Frame object. It returns: metrics, colors and transparency info, delay time and more.

Control system errors
Allows control of whether AniGif will automatically display error mesages, as a result of invalid Gif files detection. The level of the control is also adjustable.

Possible Uses
- To display animation
- To read and display Gif files

A StatusBar control provides a window, usually at the bottom of a parent form, through which an application can display various kinds of status data.

StatusBar ActiveX control is an easy to use, powerful ActiveX control which will help you to design professional applications, and supports:

Simple/multi panel styles
StatusBar control can toggle between two modes: Normal and Simple. When in Simple style, the StatusBar displays only one panel. This allows the control to have two appearances, both of which are maintained separately from each other.

Add/copy/remove panels on the fly
New panels can easily be added or copied from existing panels and also can be removed at any time. StatusBar control provides the functions to allow manipulation of new panels by code.

Windows XP icons
Internal implementation of the enhanced IC ImageList control allows handling of the new, richer image format for icons introduced in Windows XP. This format supports 16 million colors (True Color), does not use a color palette and provides 256 levels of transparency (8-bit "alpha" channel)

Three grip styles
Enhancing the visual aspect, StatusBar control provides three different styles for the sizing grip, including the new Windows XP style.

Custom drawing
StatusBar control provides the appropriate mechanism, to allow developers to custom draw panels. Although this is an advanced feature, it is very easy to be implemented as the control handles the most dificult part, asking for minimal input and taking care about the details.

Unicode compliance
Bring your application to the next level by making it multilingual. Do not overlook the new markets into which you can now more easily localize your applications menus. StatusBar control provides full Unicode compliance (UCS-2/UTF-16) that will help you create software that meets the language and locale needs of all your customers throughout the world.

Bidirectionality
Going further in the internationalization process, StatusBar control provides bidirectionality even in a non-bidirectional 32-bit Microsoft Windows environment. Its individual text and icon alignment is very important if you want to use it for languages like Hebrew and Arabic.

Tooltips for each panel
Each panel can be assigned a string, that will be displayed as Tooltip when the mouse hovers over it.

Full color customization
Various color properties ensure full visual customization, that will give your application your personal style, making the control ideal for use in "skins".

Auto coloration
The control provides the ability to automatically handle the colors used for borders and the grip, according the background color, achieving visual consistency.

Background picture
Beyond any color customization, StatusBar control allows you to set a graphic to be displayed as background.

MDI applications
StatusBar control fully supports Multiple Document Interface (MDI) applications, providing status data for MDI parent and child forms.

Contained controls
StatusBar control is a controls container, so you can place any control needed to enhance the provided information.
