> This is where the form's text property is shown, via a centered label control. This mac themed form behaves normally the same way as a regular Windows border do. Here are some controls that make this custom theme similar to a regular Windows border. The target form (form where the theme is to be applied) was converted into a control and it will be owned by the Form Container (panel| bodypanel).
This form includes several events such as resizing, moving, maximizing, minimizing, and closing. The theme was purely made up of a borderless form with lots of double-buffer enabled panels, each specially positioned to serve as the title bar, control buttons,resizing grips, and container of the form you want to apply the theme. This idea of mine doesn't modify the non-client area of a form, but creates a new pre-designed mac themed borderless form and makes your target form as its child control. I created a library so I can use it on any of my WinForms. Unfortunately I can't buy a Mac so I want to have the look and feel of Mac OS X Applications on my Windows Forms Application.
I have created a Mac OS X open source theme library for everyone and the usage of it is indicated on this article. Some programmers might want to apply some themes or skins to their forms so that it will look cool, sophisticated, and attractive. Download Mac_Theme_for_WinForms.zip - 2.56 MB Introduction
