Win7 Pack

Integrate your applications with Windows 7 using ComponentOne Windows 7 Control Pack™ for WinForms. These controls enable you to easily manage progress indicators, thumbnails and jump lists on the Windows 7 taskbar, as well as create and display custom dialogs.

These controls use the Windows 7 Extension API and are only supported on Windows 7 systems (C1TaskDialog is also supported on Vista). The controls will simply not display on older versions of Windows and do not throw exceptions.

Controls Included

  • C1TaskbarButton manages the application button on the Windows 7 taskbar. Create jump lists, add thumbnail buttons and display progress indicators on the taskbar with this easy to use control.
  • C1TaskDialog allows you to create powerful Windows 7 and Vista-style dialogs which replace the standard message box.

Features

  • Manage Jump Lists

    Jump lists display when you right-click your application's button on the Windows 7 taskbar. They allow quick access to recently used files or frequently used commands within your application. C1TaskbarButton enables you to manage your form's jump list, which can include lists of items or tasks.

  • Show Progress Indicators

    With C1TaskbarButton you can easily display progress indicators within your application's taskbar button. Manage the progress value and choose a predefined state: Normal (Green), Error (Red), Paused (Yellow) or Indeterminate (Marquee).

  • Manage Thumbnail Buttons

    Add and manage thumbnail buttons in the taskbar button flyout with C1TaskbarButton. You can also customize the application thumbnail image.

  • Display an Overlay Icon

    With C1TaskbarButton you can show an overlay icon on the taskbar button. Use this feature to show status updates to the user even when the application is minimized.

  • Windows 7 and Vista-style Dialogs

    Create and customize task dialogs without much effort. The C1TaskDialog component works like the common Windows dialogs (i.e. OpenFileDialog). You can set a few properties and then simply call the Show() method to display the dialog at run-time.

  • Customize Dialog Buttons

    With C1TaskDialog you can completely customize the buttons on the dialog by just setting a few properties. Add custom buttons, radio buttons, checkboxes, hyperlinks, expandable footer areas, a progress bar and more.

  • .NET 2.0 Support

    Windows 7 Control Pack for WinForms can be used in .NET 2.0 and higher targeting applications. The client must have Windows 7 OS in order to see the features of C1TaskbarButton (Vista is the minimum requirement for C1TaskDialog). Clients who do not meet the requirement will simply not see the feature (no crash or exception).
