- TLG_GetItemText()
- TLG_SetItemText()
- TLG_GetItemWidth()
- TLG_SetItemWidth()
- TLG_GetItemHeigth()
- TLG_SetItemHeight()
- TLG_GetItemSize() ; return the size (width and height) the hi-order word is the Height and the low-order word is the width
- TLG_SetItemSize()
- TLG_GetItemTextColor()
- TLG_SetItemTextColor()
- TLG_GetItemColor() ; returns the color for Item in the high-order word and ItemBorder in the low-order word
- TLG_SetItemColor()
- TLG_GetGadgetColor()

Looks very interesting.
Can you select how many collums to be displayed on each row?

No, if you add a new item the gadget calculate automatically how many items it can be display in one line.
It is the same technical like ACDSee

If you change the Width or Height for the items the gadget reclacluat the items per line .

If you could get the one on the top right to stretch out a bit that would be excellent.

will it be cross platform (the source)? that would be nice

I had a library book application that could have benefited from this. (And I have the same artwork collection that you do it seems).

Keep up the good work.

After a long time and a big crash of my HDD, here is the next screenshot of the ThumbListGadget.
You see a new and very nice function. If you go with the mouse over a item in the list and hold the mouse longer than 2 sec over the item, it opens a biger preview.

Hope you like the screenshot.
And you see it works very well with Vista
The build of the Gadget is not finished and so please wait more times for a first version.

I think I've died with happiness because it looks so good. More great stuff in PB to silence the critics.

I will sell my body for a copy:):):)


No comments from the peanuts gallery :):)

It looks far better than nexus, but I'll stack with srod's one cause I don't need sweet display.
Still it might be a great addition to PB's gadget library.
