Hello Mark,

VG.net works everywhere .NET 1.1 runs. The TranslucentForm works on windows 2000 and up (XP).

For Windows 98, you cannot use TranslucentForm (the win32 API is not there) but you can set the Region property on a Form containing a VG.net Canvas. The Region can be set to the area occupied by a Shape in your Picture, by getting a GraphicsPath from the Shape, then getting a Region from that. I can send you sample code if you need it.

Regards,
Frank

Hi Frank, looks very nice!

Does it work on Windows XP only, or also on 2000 and/or Windows 98?

Thank you!

Hi Tarpan,

I did not have time to add that. It is easy to add. The CalculatorBrain should probably hook itself to the keyboard events in the TranslucentForm. Maybe I can add that soon.

Hi,

The calculator looks good, but does not work from the keyboard. Nice looking beautiful and useless tool. :-(

Is it easy (possible) to link the "gel" buttons to the keyboard keys?
