Version history

Beta 9e (1.0 Beta 9.0e) - day full-month-name year

• Main Improvements
  • Added setRectGradient ownerdraw function.
  • Added setBitmap* range of ownerdraw functions; setBitmap, setBitmapTransparent, setBitmapStretch, setBitmapTile, setBitmapStretchTransparent.

• Added ctlEnabledAs. Returns the "enabled" state of control "n" as it is rendered based on parents, as opposed to it's internal state. Only usefull for controls with tab set.

• Added setCtlOrder function for changing the z-order of controls.

• Added (createSync)?, (waitForSync)? and (deleteSync)? for barrier synchronization of threads.

• Added (displayDialog)? boolean constant. True (or 1) when the dialog is displayed, false (or 0) when not. Use this constant to check whether your plug-in is called directly or through the "last filter" option of the host.

• Bug Fixes
  • Fixed issue with startSetPixel*. When recompiling using autoload, endSetPixel* may have leaked resources.
  • Set default tooltip style to normal.
  • Fixed visibility issues of controls on tab.
  • Fixed memory exception when using setCtlTab(n, t, s) to disconnect a control from a tab.
  • Improved tab controls; if tab control is disabled, children controls are disabled as well (if visible).
  • Improved tab controls; You can now use tabs on tab sheets; recursive tabs.

• Known Problems
  • Even though recursive tabs are technically possible now, the tab control itself is not drawn correctly without the help of setCtlOrder.
