WPToolBar - how to make it pretty

1. offizieller Beitrag

    My clients critticize new WPToolbar icons - they liked WPTools 6 version better.

    They say they are too small and hard to recognize.

    What can I do to make them bigger, more contrast or colorful - are there any options for that?

    IMHO they are OK, but maybe they have other screen resolution or Windows version...

    If you put a TWPToolBar on your form and attach it to a TWPRichText it will show the old icons which are loaded from the RES file.

    You can enlarge the buttons using the property ButtonHeight.

    The WPImageList is used to provider larger images. It contains a collection with "slots" for different resolutions.

    The images are loaded from a PNG file which contains images for 182 images one over the other, provided as Icons_24.png

    If the image list contains that bitmap it can be attached top the TWPToolBar and that will pick the image best matching to button height. This means when increasing the button height glyphs with better resolution can be pulled from TWPImageList.

    Why WPTools does not use the standard TImageList? Because the TWPImageList supports PNG and can also contain multiple icons used for different resolutions.
