Gripper Visibility

ColinRuleColinRule
in SRP Splitter Control
The gripper is only visible when the splitter is about 10 pixels wide.
I don't like a fat splitter, so cant then see gripper.
I expect this is by design, so just mentioning.

    Hmm, are you sure? I just tested it and I see a gripper as long as the bar is 4 pixels or wider. Are you using any kind of border?
  • ColinRuleColinRule
    Yes, I was using a border.
    I turn this off and I can now see the gripper.
    Cant really get the thing to be designed as I want, as I was looking to show the gripper and have a border, but also have it 5 pixels wide. Seems I cant have it all, as it just wont fit.
    I will therefore do without the gripper, as without the border the splitter is not very clearly visible.

    There is still hope. Instead of using the border property, use the border feature of the background color fill. This should allow enough space to display the gripper.

    Tried that, still does not work at 5 pixels deep.
    10 pixels shows 3 little grippers on the Form Designer, but after applying backcolour, this only shows one little gripper.
    Therefore at 5 pixels there is still insufficient room.

    5 an 10 used as that is my snap settings.

    I should however be able to get a suitable design using the colour fill without the grippers showing
