TOrganicShapeControl is the base class for every windowed Organic Shape Component.

You shouldn't instanciate this class directly. You should use one of the Organic Shape components instead.

 

Hierarchy

TOrganicShapeControl inherits from TCustomControl.

 

History (changes since last version)

  • Bug fix - saveSkin and loadSkin methods accept an absolute path as argument.
  • Bug fix - Control is automatically repainted after the loadSkin method is called.
  • Bug fix - mask's PixelFormat is set to pfDevice to let Delphi do automatic palette management.
  • Bug fix - when InvisibleColor property changes, the Mask is now automatically updated.

 

Additional Properties:

  • Mask : TBitmap
    bitmap that is used as a mask to shape the control.
  • InvisibleColor : TColor
    the transparent color used to calculate the region. Default is white.
  • WordWrap : Boolean
    doesn't have any associated functionality. Useful only to descendant classes.
  • Margin : integer
    doesn't have any associated functionality. Useful only to descendant classes.

 

Additional Methods:

  • Procedure saveSkin (folder: string)
    implements basic functionality. Saves component's coordinates.
  • Procedure loadSkin (folder: string)
    implements basic functionality. Loads component's coordinates.
