Of course it is a one liner in win32winapi ;).
The question is how to do it in the other default widgetset: gtk.
I see 3 possibilities:
1. Find a solution how to do it in gtk
2. Improve the qt widgetset to become better than the gtk widgetset and
implement the qt SetMapMode
3. Write a pascal unit with SetMapMode(s) for the various platforms and
add it to virtualtree. Then advice the users that vt needs
qt or win32/64.
