I think color is taken by Marek. The only property unattended in checkbox which is common is transparent. Shall I take that one and try on?

I've just took color from Marek to to move it to control class and solve some problems.

Yes, you can try transparent with a little advise: If a specific property is not directly supported by QT, I guess that this is not the moment to stop at esoteric solutions

ie: maxLength (EditBox) is not supperted by QTextEdit() so, I've documented the situation and going on with another thing.

When we finished with functionality directly supported by QT, we will focus on tricks to support the other things (hopefully, by that time we will acquired the needed experience and knowledge).

And perhaps this is a good moment to add a text file at SVN to document these situations...

Well... the last chapter...

You'll find references to 'self'.

Self is used to refer to the class object itself.

So, you'll find the the 'new' method in the control class return 'self' whenis called, giving...

oButton := Button:New()

Since new() method return 'self' oButton variable holds the object (as simple as that).

Class variables must be reference in this way:

::xVar

form the class methods.

And this is all... (I'm going to work in color properties).

Please, review the code, create your own class for do tests you should be ready soon...

I'm working over AutoSize property of label.
It's almost done, but, I can't calculate text width with function GetTextWidth.
I think, this function is placed in libhbwin.a library, but compilator can't find it?
What's going on?

PS. I've realized Alignment property and added new properties: WordWrap and VAlignment (vertical alignment)...
Marek

I've prepared label.prg and demo_4.prg
Please test it.

FontColor, BackColor, Visible property connected to Spinner
modified source/spinner.prg

Hello Roberto,

How is your health (I read you got fever)

If TextBox control is free, may I work on it after finishing Spinner?

libhbwin gives support for Windows only. Please, consider that we are working on a multi-platform project. Please, if you used, eliminate any reference to that.

Moreover, the goal to this first stage is to mimic as good as possible the current HMG features, please, do not add new functionality yet.

I'm a little better, thanks!

Please, go on with TextBox.

I can't see possibility to realize AutoSize property without GetTextWidth.
I'll read QT doc. Maybe there is a resolve of problem.
