Creating Control Under Draw Tab in manifest.xml - powerpoint

Is it possible to add any control to the PowerPoint's Draw tab? Draw tab's ID is not given in Microsoft's documentation. But is there a way to achieve this? Is it possible that the documentation is old?

Magnification of items during scrolling in Xamarin.Forms

We need to implement a horizontal scroll control in Xamarin.Forms, that would not just allow scrolling through items via swipe, but would magnify elements in the row as they approach a center of the scroll control. The design of the layout desired is this:
Thus far I wasn't able to find any control for Xamarin or Xamarin.Forms that implements such behaviour.
Please either provide a hint on how to approach the implementation of such functionality via extending the UIScrollView, or point to a control or example that related to the requirement. Thank you.
You can use the CarouselView, but it's still in the preview. So, the best way to implement it at the moment is to use the CustomRenderers

cocoa get drag and drop content without dropping

Is it possible for a menubar application icon to receive text by hovering it over the icon? I need to know how many characters are in the content before it is dropped on the icon. and if there is too many characters in the content i want the green circle on the cursor to turn red. Is this possible? What methods would i use to accomplish this? I could not find anything helpful on the documentation page.
The NSDraggingInfo is provided for -draggingEntered:, so you would have access to the draggingPasteboard containing the object even before the drop occurs.
As to changing the cursor, you would need to provide your own. Have a look at the NSCursor documentation.

Need guidelines for developing GUI builder tool using ruby-gtk2

I am in process of developing custom GUI generator tool (its new GUI tool like glade) and to achieve that i am using ruby-gtk2. I am a newbie to the world of ruby and gtk, so i need a help in a problem which i am struck regarding adding background image to a widget.
Let me explain in detail, the application (i.e.,GTK::window) has two sections say left section and right section (section can be frames,layouts,panned window or equivalent). Left section has a list of all widgets like Button, Label, CheckBox and so on as images. So user who needs to design the GUI will drag and drop any widgets from left section to right sections, on dropping to right section it (i.e., widget) should be re-sizable and also draggable across right section.
Currently i am adding all widgets to eventbox so that on drag n drop on right section i will get all the controls of events like drag_start, drag_motion, drag_end etc..But how can i add an image as background to eventbox, so that i have button image added to eventbox and also handle resize and drag. Concept is user should be able to resize the properties of widget that drops to right section. Need help in implementing this, i know i am missing something to achieve this. Awaiting any suggestions.

WP7 Show Control on top of other control

Is it possible to show control on top of other control?
If so, how?
Especially I'm interesting in showing Border control on top of WebBrowser.
Thank you in advance!
Yes, you can show one control on top of another. Look at the Canvas.ZIndex attached property which is respected by all Panel implementations. Simply place your controls within a Panel so that they overlap then set their z-index accordingly.
You have to use canvas control. Place all of the contents inside a canvas and set elements individually by Canvas.Zindex property

Remove the dotted line on a Win32 common control without owner-draw

Is there any way to remove the dotted line rectangle, which indicates the keyboard focus, on a Win32 common control, without owner draw or subclass them?
It seems that under WPF one can control the visual style of the focus rectangle, but I failed to find corresponding API on a Win32 common control.
You can send it the WM_CHANGEUISTATE message or subclass it and fake the parameters in response to WM_UPDATEUISTATE
I don't believe there is a simple style that allows you to turn off the focus rect on a list view control. The only way I've ever seen it done is with an owner draw control. I know this is not the answer you were looking for, but there are examples of owner draw controls that do this available... just so you don't have to do all the work. :)
