Both B3BasicText and B3BasicImage make excellent controls to use as Intrinsic controls when developing your own controls in .NET. If you wish to make distributable custom controls using any of the controls in the .NETools package, you will have to contact BeCubed Software to arrange for OEM licensing. Currently, the tools DLL does not have support for third party licensing.

The Image, Text and Fill Rectangles can either be automatically aligned (ImageAlign, TextAlign) or manually positioned and sized at designtime. Click on the text at designtime to activate the grab handles, or, if an image is loaded, click on the image to activate its grab handles.

With B3Label, both the Image and Text support their own Bevel settings.

Transparency. Unlike the stock controls .NETools support "true" transparency. The stock controls perform transparency by matching their background color to that of their parents. True transparency allows the parent to paint it's background and the control should not perform a default fill. .NETools does not use Alpha Blending so it is not dependant upon DirectX.

Not needed by many, but when you need them, they're here.  These tools have been available sine VBTools 1.0 shipped, so we felt it important to keep them in the package.

The Card Deck now has built-in shuffle with a repeatable sequence generator.  It also supports 2 separate Jokers (Red/Black).  The Shuffle can include the jokers or you can exclude them.  As with the Dice, we have provided the Cards RLE file so you can adjust them.

    B3Clock (component):

The B3Clock does not have a GUI.  It is designed to provide an accurate time base to the developer.  You can display the time anyway, or anywhere you need.  The B3Clock will provide you with an easily accessible formatted time string.  The B3Clock also provides for a Collection of Alarm settings and a separate Event notification for alarm triggers.

• Formatted Time String
• Alarm Settings (Date/Time)
• Separate Notifications for Time updates and Alarms.

    B3Keystate (component):

B3Keystate does not have a GUI.  It is designed to provide notification when selected key states are changed.  Primarily used for checking the states of the Cap lock, Scroll Lock, Num Lock, and INSERT keys, you can use B3KeyState to track the key state of ANY key.

While not widely needed, when you need it, it's in here.  This component provides a standard Department of Defense style File Delete.  It actually goes further by scrubbing the File date/times, and filename.  This component provides for constant feedback as to it's progress through the file and offers the ability to cancel at anytime during those notifications (although, canceling after the first confirmation is usually to late to recover the file).  B3DODFileDelete safe-guards against wild-card deleting.  Although this component deploys a DOD style delete, it is not approved by the DOD.
