The eXToolBar component, similar with the Microsoft Office's "Fluent User Interface", or ToolBar, allows you to display graphical control elements in the form of a set of toolbars placed on several tabs. The eXToolBar component is written from scratch, uses
EBN technology to let the user changes its visual appearance using skins, and requires no dependencies to Microsoft Office, Microsoft ToolBar API, or any other third party library. The major difference between our toolbar implementation and others, is that you can display and use built-editors ( like sliders, spin, progress, ... ) anywhere on the control.
