hi
since next components became a very good component package
i listed here some features i really think should be added

1) Group by for the grid: ability to group a grid according to a certain column by drag and drop
2) scrollers of TnxPageControl: should be invisible when not needed. currently users are confused and thinks they dont work
3) re-position tabs: ability to re-position tabs in a TnxPageControl
4) object/animation inside a tab: to make a firefox like timer when a page is loading (for example)
5) TnxBusy: wim seems to disappear and he made a TnxBusy, but i think it should be like a progressbar that goes forever (like when windows restarts)

that's it for now
im sure more ideas will come on the way
mayb this post should be updated regularly as a todo list for boki

Hello Emailaya,

Please read for answers:

1) This is planed.
2) This will be added, most probably.
3) This will be added.
4) Very nice idea, but problem will be what is a animation, and how to store this animation.
5) I will think about it, maybe I will create new control beside TNxBusy, to not break Wim's code. I hope that Wim will be here in future too

Best regards

2) i hope it will be added without the most probably
4) the only thing i can think of at the moment is a link to an animated object. and the animation would be like firefox's animation
5) do u know where he disappeared? he appears online sometimes on my msn, but he never answers
5) i think it should be a parameter of a TnxProgressbar (busy: true/false)

Hello,

I think that Wim is vacation.

I will most probably add property to mine TNxProgressBar, because it look more like a progress bar.

Best regards

property to your TnxProgressbar is the best solution i can see

6) combo for nxPageControl that contains all available tabs for a quick switch to this tab

[Boki (Berg)]

Hello Emailaya,

6) It is planned, but there will not be a combo-box. More it will be like pop-up menu.

Best regards

7) lock tabs from scrolling: "2" will mean that the first 2 tabs wont scroll even when the user clicks on the scrollers (TnxPageControl)

What are some features you dont use in Firefox?

For me:

Search bar at top - takes up space and is plain annoyingAddons - make Firefox too slowBookmark Toolbar / Sidebar - I use the Smart Bar History - who needs it?Passwords - I already remember them
