IDE Toolbars – again (final)

December 11, 2008, 12:39 pm

I’ve made a final change to the disable IDE gradient package. This time it disables all* toolbars within the IDE.

For GExperts, because the toolbar is not loaded immediately the IDE is loaded, I suggest you request the GExperts people add an option. They already have a number of toolbar options available.

The code has been simplified quite a bit in this version.

Download is in the same location: DisableGradient.zip

Note: It may not work for some IDE add-ins that control and update the gradient themselves when loaded. It worked for my Visual Forms expert, plus a few others of mine that are not public. It will depend on how the specific expert is coded.

* By all I mean the toolbars for windows available in the currently loaded desktop. Also if new windows are in a specific project desktop, then they should also have their toolbars updated.

    Hi JED,

    one nitpick – the registry entry is stored under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Borland\BDS\4.0Toolbars instead of HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Borland\BDS\4.0\Toolbars – note the missing backslash.

    Regards, Uli.
