Hello,
I'm trying to find out if there is any way to define my own appearnce and properties for to the find panel (such on GridControl)…(and i don't mean on the skin).
My questions regarding it, are the following:
- Is it possible to define the Size of the "Find" & "Clear" buttons?
- Can i put a background image on the "Find" & "Clear" buttons, or only text?
- Can i set the location of the "Find" & "Clear" buttons on the Find panel?
- Can i change the gray back color (see attachment)?
thanks a lot.
Hi Roey,
Thank you for your question. To achieve this goal, utilize the approach demonstrated in the How to customize the Find Panel layout? example.
Thanks,
Gosha
Hi Gosha,
Well, it's a bit more complicated than i thought,
so i'm not going to make this changes, though, i would like
to know nevertheless,
how can i change the gray back color on the SKIN?
thank you.
Hi Roey,
As it is described in a similar tread (BackColor of the FindPanel when we use LookAndFeel), LayoutControlGroup that is placed in the Find Panel uses the skin's Control color settings. If you change this color in the skin, some other controls' back color will be changed too. Thus, I suggest you use the approach from the How to customize the Find Panel layout? example.
Thanks,
John.
Hello again,
Well, i meant, how can i change it using the skin editor?
Thanks
Hi Roey,
To achieve this goal run the Skin Editor tool. Create a required skin descendant and change the BackColor2 property for the Grid->GridGrpouPanel object. Then create an assembly file with this skin via the File->Create Assembly menu option.
Thanks,
John.
