VCL Themes

[Vincent Parrett]

The support for VCL Themes doesn't really allow for customising the open/closed glyphs. Is there any work going on with theme support? I'd be more interested in contributing if the project was on github.. the whole process on github is just so much better.

Hi Vincent.

I recently stumbled about this problem too when I tried to use the control in a touch optimized UI on metro style form. This is working quite well, the expand symbols however don't look good: They are too smal and display in Windows 2000 style. So far I had no time for looking deeper into this.

Tom, didn't you address custom expand symbols in your derivation of the Virtual Treeview control?

Best regards,

Joachim

Is your version available somewhere? Can I get access to it?

This is why I like github so much, I can see who has forked the project,
I can see what they are doing with it, users can submit pull requests
and I can either accept or reject (or comment or provide guidance or
request further changes). I have Continua CI set up to build the pull
request and run unit tests etc first). None of this is really possible
with google code.

I must admit this sounds very interesting. The group is already on Cc: and I am interested what the other developers say about switching to GitHub.

Best regards,

I'll post a separate topic, to gauge what people think.

Well the responses so far have been zero, apart from us 3. I have done a
test import to github - https://github.com/Virtual-TreeView/Virtual-TreeView

It did an amazing job. I'll see what it takes to get issues imported.
