object border? why?

[Imagine Programming]

This thread made me giggle.

in addition; you can remove that border without using a mask image

here is a function to remove border , it creates a 1 pixel smaller region and applies to target window

function RemoveBorder(hWnd,nWidth,nHeight)
	local va_args = string.format("%d,%d,%d,%d",1,1,nWidth-1,nHeight-1);
	local hRgn = DLL.CallFunction("Gdi32.dll", "CreateRectRgn", va_args, 0, 1);
	local va_args = string.format("%d,%d,%d",hWnd,hRgn,1);
	DLL.CallFunction("User32.dll", "SetWindowRgn", va_args, 0, 1);	
	DLL.CallFunction("Gdi32.dll", "DeleteObject",hRgn, 0, 1);	
end

Usage :

local tProps = Input.GetProperties("Input1");
RemoveBorder(tProps.WindowHandle,tProps.Width,tProps.Height);

local tProps = Progress.GetProperties("Progress1");
RemoveBorder(tProps.WindowHandle,tProps.Width,tProps.Height);

Note : if you resize an object that you applied this function then you must call this function again to set region to new size

Very useful function there feller A+ but then this is you we are talking about, I sure you must dream code lol

thank you! will it run in all Windows?

questioner is talking about the border around sunken edges that can not be customized by property box

do not be lazy. and look at the attached screenshot , it is pretty easy to see difference

for a regular AMS user , the only available option is masking specified object , as Ulrich suggested

[AnimeCrazyFan]

As the capture I posted apparently wasn't clear enough, let me spell it out: The first object in each series shows the default look, and the second object is masked. "Masked" means that a mask was applied on the window containing the object, suppressing parts of it using a black and white bitmap. Samples of the Window.SetMask() action can be found in countless posts here in the forum.

Ulrich

Thank you very much

Maybe you didn't understood that the comments about laziness were not referred to you but to the other user who does not look into the options of the property box of objects?

IMO, no kindness for so stupid questions where neither is necessary to read the user manual or understand anything, only give a look in a combo box.

Could you tell me where are the "options of the property box of objects" that I did not look into?
If you found laziness in a topic, please don't reply to that topic.

[Bruce]

No dear Cyber, I understood well the comments.
My reply was only to specify that there are many type of users,
completely lazy, pretty lazy, normally lazy...
Obviously I agree with you and your opinion.
Finally believe me, in the past in this Forum there was less severity.

LMAO! Too funny

I can't find any property that allows using "sunken" style without border.

Borders are a nuisance in the same way lazy people are.

While I agree that these sunken borders can be a nuisance, it is easy enough to get rid of them when you need:

Thank you, but I don't know how to do, could you attach a sample project?

Lazy people are not all the same.
For example I am healing from my laziness
but I think lately on this Forum you are too severe.
I say this because I've noted more kindness by reading old posts since 2006 to 2010.
Anyway I think your hardness can help people like me to do better.

i respectfully disagree, Borders are easily fixed, lazy people are not
