I remember it being said that it would never happen. I'm not complaining, mind you. I think that the Fox team did (and continues to do) a fantastic job. As I'd said before, one can still hope...


I can imagine that there are people out there that actually depend on this VFP container clipping to continue to work as it currently does.

I do think I'd implement this with a borderless clipping container and a separate visible shape for the border. The container class can dynamically add the shape to the form at runtime so that you don't have to worry about an additional level of containership, or have the headaches of an additional object to size/position in the the designer.
