The more advanced taskbar in windows 7 has the capability to add a toolbar in the thumbnail preview.
This example put two buttons in the thumbnail, and the main window will display a text when one of these buttons is displayed.
(remember to press register before they appear)
VCL Component (TOpenGLAPPanel)
Another bug has slipped through my testing.
The Get3DTextSize() contained a small error that caused 1 character length string to be ignored.
FBO and Bitmap Layer Demo
This is a demonstration of rendering to frame buffer objects (FBO)
and then transfer the buffer to a TBitmap to use the
UpdateLayeredWindow feature in windows to handle transparency.
User Account Control
This small apps contains a class for detection if the application is
“Run as Admin”, elevation level, if its elevated and more enjoy..
Demo of OpenGL Text 2D/3D
Small application to demonstrate the use of 2D text and 3D text features of TOpenGLAPPanel.

Due to a few bugs found in my TOpenGLAPPanel i’m releasing an update.
Draw2DText, Draw3DText and Get3DTextSize contained a Unicode error, so I desided to go back to good old char * in those functions.
Scanner
Small scanner application to demonstrate multi document environment (MDI) .
It uses the “twain_32.dll” for handling the interface to your scanner.
TDirect2DCanvas
The TDirect2DCanvas introduces an easy way of using Direct2D, a new 2-D graphics wrapper for Windows 7.
Look here for information from microsoft:

Camera
This is a recompile of my web camera example program using the “video for windows” library, and build in capturing to avi file.
If you need an encoder, try using “Windows Media Video 9 VCM”

Remarks:
This is using VFW and the function capGetDriverDescription() only retrieves driver information like “Microsoft WDM Image Capture (Win32)”. This function did work fine for years back, but today all cameras is WDM cameras, and this means only one driver reply.
For support of more than one camera, then a directshow implementation must be made instead.
Lesson 2
One of my old tutorials, gives you the first impression on how to use my OpenGL VCL component.
