This is a control that looks a little bit like the credits of the Matrix movie. While it isn't the greatest clone of the Matrix credits, it turned out really well. The control is devired from CWnd.
Here is how you use this class:
- Insert the .h and .cpp files into your project.
- Create a static control into your dialog resource; it will be the placeholder for the control.
- Add a member variable, like this:
- In your InitDialog message handler, create the control and place it in the right position:
CMatrixCtrl m_MatrixCtrl;
// determine the rectangle for the control CRect rect; GetDlgItem(IDC_PLACEHOLDER) >GetWindowRect(rect); ScreenToClient(rect); m_MatrixCtrl.SetCredits("What is The Matrix?,This is The Matrix!,Programmed by,Pablo van der Meer,Pablo Software Solutions,http://www.pablovandermeer.nl"); // create the control m_MatrixCtrl.Create(WS_VISIBLE | WS_CHILD, rect, this);

Thanks for donating the code. It makes for a nice touch to typically boring things like "about" dialog boxes and any short (2 to 4 line) messages that need to be jazzed up.
