Notes

  • Place it in the bottom-right corner; at run time dragging it resizes the form.
  • Image supplies the grip picture so it matches the rest of the skin.

Example

From the demo MlSkin.Demo.动画演示.v3.0 (.dfm form file)

  Left = 307
  Top = 332
  Width = 20
  Height = 20
  Cursor = crSizeNWSE
  AutoInvalidate = True
  Anchors = [akRight, akBottom]
  Image = 'MlSkinDrag_flag'
end

Properties of TMlSkinCustomControl 5
NameTypeDefaultDescription
AboutTMlAboutInfoA design-time property: double-clicking it in the Object Inspector opens the MLSkin about box with the component version. It has no effect at run time and is not stored in the .dfm.
TransparentBooleanTrueTransparent background: the control skips its own fill and shows the form background (image or color) instead.
ColorTColorclWhiteBackground color of the control; ignored while Transparent is on.
AutoInvalidateBooleanFalseRepaints automatically when the content changes. Turn it on if property changes do not show up.
EraseBackgroundBooleanFalseWhether the background is erased before painting; worth toggling if the control flickers.
Events of TMlSkinCustomControl 4
NameTypeDefaultDescription
OnDPIChangedTMlDPIChangedEventFires when the screen DPI changes, for example when the window moves to a monitor with a different scaling — a good place to re-adjust anything you draw yourself.
OnBackgroundChangingTMlBackgroundEventFires just before the background changes, giving you a chance to adjust what is drawn.
OnBackgroundChangedTMlCustomDrawEventFires after the background has been drawn, so you can paint on top of it.
OnVisibleChangedTNotifyEventFires when the control is shown or hidden.

Only the properties and events MLSkin adds are listed here. Standard VCL properties such as Align, Anchors, Font and OnClick are available too and behave exactly as on the stock controls.
