Skinning the Edit Box

September 16, 2004 3:29:39 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
I have noticed that some skins are able to use an image for the "edit box". However, I can't seem to find how to do this in SkinStudio. All I can seem to be able to do is change the border color. how do i go about using an image to skin the "Edit Box"?

Thanks for any help!

Can you give us a link to one or more of the skins that do this?

Yes, I surely can. Brushed Panther, by Xero https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=1&SkinID=3476 , seems to have an Edit Box with rounded corners on it.

Maybe I am misunderstanding this, is there a way to just turn on some option like "rounded corners"? Or did Xero use an actual image for the Edit Box?

Anyways, thanks!

You can edit the background color by adjusting the classic colors in the skin.

I see what you're talking about now. The Edit Box is using the Combo Box image. But if you enable the Edit Box Edge Color attribute, it will no longer use the COmbo Box image.

Thank you SO much! I really appreciate the help. I didn't think about trying that at all. Now I can keep working on until I hit my next problem...

Thanks again!
