The code is generated entirely from the contents of the *.form file. It is just the instanciation of a control inside its container followed by a method call (Move or MoveScaled) and property assignments. The only trick is when you put a "virtual" control inside a form. There is a mark that tells the compiler that this is not a true control, and that it must not pass the container as argument to the control constructor. In other words, I don't find that feature really useful, but if you can really persuade me to it, I will have to modify the compiler so that it can give you the generated code from a form file. :-) -- Benoit Minisini ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
