On Windows default appearance the tabsheet caption are showed in horizontal (left to right 1) and with the VCL styles enabled they are displayed in vertical (down to top[2]). How I can fix this on Delphi XE5? Detail: I'm using the JvgPageControl component, from JEDI-VCL 3.58.
I want to create an similar interface of DisplayFusion welcome screen [3]. Suggestions are welcome!

Thanks in advance!
The TJvgPageControl uses the same vcl style hook (TTabControlStyleHook
) of the TPageControl
control, so you must create a new style hook inherited from the TTabControlStyleHook
and override the DrawTab
method.
Check this basic implementation for the new style hook
type
TTabControlStyleHookExt = class(TTabControlStyleHook)
protected
procedure DrawTab(Canvas: TCanvas; Index: Integer); override;
end;
TCustomTabControlClass = class(TCustomTabControl);
{ TTabControlStyleHookExt }
procedure TTabControlStyleHookExt.DrawTab(Canvas: TCanvas; Index: Integer);
var
R, LayoutR, GlyphR: TRect;
ImageWidth, ImageHeight, ImageStep : Integer;
LDrawState: TThemedTab;
LDetails: TThemedElementDetails;
ThemeTextColor: TColor;
FImageIndex: Integer;
begin
if TabPosition <> tpLeft then
begin
inherited ;
exit;
end;
if (Images <> nil) and (Index < Images.Count) then
begin
ImageWidth := Images.Width;
ImageHeight := Images.Height;
ImageStep := 3;
end
else
begin
ImageWidth := 0;
ImageHeight := 0;
ImageStep := 0;
end;
R := TabRect[Index];
if R.Left < 0 then Exit;
if Index = TabIndex then
Dec(R.Left, 2)
else
Dec(R.Right, 2);
Canvas.Font.Assign(TCustomTabControlClass(Control).Font);
LayoutR := R;
if Index = TabIndex then
LDrawState := ttTabItemLeftEdgeSelected
else if (Index = HotTabIndex) and MouseInControl then
LDrawState := ttTabItemLeftEdgeHot
else
LDrawState := ttTabItemLeftEdgeNormal;
LDetails := StyleServices.GetElementDetails(LDrawState);
StyleServices.DrawElement(Canvas.Handle, LDetails, R);
{ Image }
if Control is TCustomTabControl then
FImageIndex := TCustomTabControlClass(Control).GetImageIndex(Index)
else
FImageIndex := Index;
if (Images <> nil) and (FImageIndex >= 0) and (FImageIndex < Images.Count) then
begin
GlyphR := LayoutR;
GlyphR.Bottom := GlyphR.Bottom - ImageStep;
GlyphR.Top := GlyphR.Bottom - ImageHeight;
LayoutR.Bottom := GlyphR.Top;
GlyphR.Left := GlyphR.Left + (GlyphR.Right - GlyphR.Left) div 2 - ImageWidth div 2;
if StyleServices.Available then
StyleServices.DrawIcon(Canvas.Handle, LDetails, GlyphR, Images.Handle, FImageIndex);
end;
{ Text }
if StyleServices.GetElementColor(LDetails, ecTextColor, ThemeTextColor) then
Canvas.Font.Color := ThemeTextColor;
//use the top tab style to draw the text
if Index = TabIndex then
LDetails := StyleServices.GetElementDetails(ttTabItemSelected)
else
if (Index = HotTabIndex) and MouseInControl then
LDetails := StyleServices.GetElementDetails(ttTabItemHot)
else
LDetails := StyleServices.GetElementDetails(ttTabItemNormal);
DrawControlText(Canvas, LDetails, Tabs[Index], LayoutR, DT_VCENTER or DT_CENTER or DT_SINGLELINE or DT_NOCLIP);
end;
Then register the new style hook like this
initialization
TStyleEngine.RegisterStyleHook(TJvgPageControl, TTabControlStyleHookExt);
