MaxiToolbar Pro

Add Mac OS X-style toolbars (10.1 - .4) to your Mac & Windows REALbasic applications with these cross-platform button classes and enhanced toolbar controller class.

Even though these classes emulate Mac OS X toolbars, they include appearance optimizations for Windows as well.

The encryption has been removed from the toolbar classes so you are free to make whatever modifications you desire. If you have a useful change, please let us know so we can incorporate it in the version here. The need for a serial number has also been removed, for obvious reasons.

The download includes the toolbar classes and the graphics needed for MenuButtons (menu arrows) and the EndCap (overflow arrows).

WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 2.0a10
  • Exposed more properties to the Properties pane/window of the REALbasic IDE. The only thing that has to be done in the window's Open event is to call InitwithView. Similarly, the only thing that has to be done in the Open event of buttons is setup any menu (for MenuButtons only, of course). Everything else can be set via the Properties pane.
  • Changed the math that determines placement of the caption. This should allow for a better look when using icons that are not 32x32.
WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 2.0a8
  • Removed requirement for a serial number, and removed encryption on toolbar classes.
  • Fixed a couple of display issues with MenuButtons on Windows
  • Added ability to create vertical toolbars. New property 'IsVertical' of ESTController tells the controller and buttons to draw vertically rather than the standard horizontally.
  • Preference-style toolbars are now possible (actually made their appearance in an earlier release). Property 'PrefsStyle' of ESTController tells the controller and buttons to draw the gray, selection box around the selected button. Property 'PSSelected' (boolean) sets a button's selected state.
WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 2.0a4
  • Improved appearance on Linux - 'pushed' appearance of buttons should now show; previously was not showing. This should also allow any MouseDown icons to be displayed as well.
  • Still Open - menu arrow does not show on Linux, 'pushed' appearance does not show on Linux for MenuButtons, and the MenuButton's window disables when the menu is shown
WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 2.0a2
  • Removed usage of HierPop for all menus, both the contextual Show/Hide and menus for MenuButtons. All menus are now Rb native menus and are created in the same way as Rb contextual and popup menus are created
  • Minor changes to Appearance Manager to handle changes apparently due to the Intel endianness switch. If toolbar item caption text does not appear correctly check the TBGetThemeText... methods for the code that returns the proper color.
