Subject: Mike Benonis Releases 3 REALbasic Utilities:
MiniCalendar, DarkHighlightListBox, LibraryListBox
MiniCalendar is a REALbasic implementation of the Calendar control seen in
the System Preferences Date & Time panel. It allows the user to select a
date by clicking and if a date selected, the DateChanged event fires.
MiniCalendar is made with REALbasic and requires REALbasic 5.1 or later.
MiniCalendar is ideal for simple date selection needs, such as for a To Do
application or something else where the user may need to select a date for
an action to occur on.
To use MiniCalendar in your project, drag the MiniCalendar class, and the
CalendarBack and CalendarBackMask files into your project, and then drag
the MiniCalendar class into the window you want to use it in. You can then
perform actions in the DateChanged event and initialize the calendar in the
Open event. The DateChanged event will fire when the user changes the date
or you set it with the CurrentDate property. The MonthDate property
represents the first of whatever month is selected.
MiniCalendar is Free and Open Source, and may be modified and
redistributed, as long as this note appears in the class and you include a
small credit in the documentation or About Box of you application. Also, if
you make any worthwhile modifications, please let me know so I can include
them.
You can get MiniCalendar at http://homepage.mac.com/mbenonis/ under the
REALbasic ) Code section.

DarkHighlightListBox
DarkHighlightListBox is a REALbasic implementation of the ListBox control
that Cocoa uses. The main difference is that it uses a darker color for the
highlight color as opposed to the lighter highlight color that REALbasic
uses. DarkHighlightListBox is made with REALbasic and requires REALbasic
version 5.1 or later.
To use it in your project, drag the DarkHighlightListBox class into your
project, and then drag the DarkHighlightListBox class into the window you
want to use it in. DarkHighlightListBox then works like any ListBox would.
DarkHighlightListBox is Free and Open Source, and may be modified and
redistributed, as long as this note appears in the class and you include a
small credit in the documentation or About Box of you application. Also, if
you make any worthwhile modifications, please let me know so I can include
them.

LibraryListBox is a REALbasic implementation of the ListBox control that
Apple’s iApps use for the source lists. The main difference is that it uses
a gradient for the highlight color as opposed to the highlight color that
the user selected.
LibraryListBox requires REALbasic 5.1 or later. To use it in your project,
drag the LibraryListBox class, and the LibrarySelection and
LibrarySelectionGray files into your project, and then drag the
LibraryListBox class into the window you want to use it in and set the
DefaultRowHeight to 18. LibraryListBox then works like any ListBox would.
LibraryListBox is Free and Open Source, and may be modified and
redistributed, as long as this note appears in the class and you include a
small credit in the documentation or About Box of you application. Also, if
you make any worthwhile modifications, please let me know so I can include
them.
You can get LibraryListBox at http://homepage.mac.com/mbenonis/ under the
