Control
Overview: The VB Squared
ActiveX Skin Control has been designed to be very easy to use with
built in features not available to other skin controls. With 6 built in skins,
adding an attractive skin to your application is as easy as dropping
the control on the form and adding 1 line of code. The compatibility to work
with Aligned Controls and Visual Basic Menus are features not found
in most skin controls.
There is no need to write special code for resizing events or
activation\deactivation of the skin control as the control
automatically moves all controls contained on a form to compensate
for skin borders.
