This is just a post to inform you about the availability of the latest rkSmartTabs.
Now dragging of tabs works correctly and hints are working properly.
Making this work was a lot more difficult than expected but the hardest part was to make all the transparency work correctly.
I hope you find this update useful, now you should download it and have some fun.
Download it at the download page as single component since collection has not been updated yet.
Updated components
This is just a small update for rkSmartPath and a beta release of the updated rkSmartTabs.
Not very much new stuff but I have added a feature to the rkSmartPath so it will always show at least one item in view. Meaning that the folder name will be truncated to fit in view, similar to how it is done in Vistas path bar.
The rkSmartTabs uploaded is the newest version and is in beta stage. Do not use it for real applications yet. I only uploaded it for people that want to test and get a feel of how it works. I am always curries myself so I thought maybe someone was interested. There are some limitations in this version as I know about fx hints are not working and tabs can not be dragged. So set ShowHint to false and AllowTabDrag to false when testing. If you find other strange stuff happening I would like to hear about it so I can do something about it. Thanks!
I hope you find it useful so far.
Please download these components as single components in the download page. They have not been included in the collection yet.
The collection will soon be updated.

Good looking SmartPath
This is just an update of my SmartPath component. Some elements have been removed while some elements have been added.
I added a transparent option, and lookup in edit mode. The search option was removed. Some bugs were removed and the code tweaked a little.
UPDATED!
New property added
NetDiskWait: Boolean;
When set to true it works like normal but if you set it to false it will not check if net disks(drives) are ready. I have a net drive that lose connection all the time, making me crazy every time I am going to pick a disk, so I had to do something about it. Default is False.

Hope you like it.
