Hello

Do anyone knows why some controls (like the textboxes) appear in '2D
style' while the application is running but some others (like the
comboboxes) appear in 3D? In the form designer they appear in 3D. If
is not possible to show the textboxes in 3D, is it possible to show
the comboboxes in 2D?

Thanks in advance
Gianco
 
What platform are you deploying to? Pocket PC uses 2D looking controls and
the standard Windows CE.NET approach is 3D but this can vary between device
types. The designer always draws controls using 3D because controls are
drawn with their desktop equivalent.

Hi Gianco,

Additional BorderStyles for Textboxes is a feature being considered for the
next release.

Thanks,
