Default VB3 Styles
I am in the process of designing a Version 3.0 for a vbb that I run and we are estimating that the style will be done sometime in March, after we beta test it, etc.

I was wondering how the style design changes from VB2.2.9 to VB3 and how I can accomodate for those changes in my code. It would be grueling to design an entire new style only to find out it doesn't work in the new VB3 interface.

BTW, I plan on changing most of the templates as well: Postbit, Forumhome, Forumdisplay, Threadisplay, etc.

Any help is appreciated.

How can you design a style when you don't have access to the vB 3 templates? Especially when these templates aren't even done yet.

I think he was designing a style that he figured would work when the new VB 3 comes out so he could use it for the upgrade. But then found out that it probably wouldn't work because things will be changed on VB 3. So now he's wondering what type of changes will occur and wether or not he should go through with it. I'm pretty sure that's what he ment.

He has it right, I am designing a style for use when VB3 comes out and I don't know if they're is any major change in how the style is done that I should accomodate for in my coding.

Maybe Steve could give us some insight?

The style will be completely different, you can't design for something you don't have really =/

and as long as there isn't the restricted beta, noone of us could say how much difference is between vb3 and vb2 templates, just that there are a lot...

This is more of a question for Freddie but in another post (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...382#post317382) he provided a screenshot of the install converting old VB styles to the new 3.0 style.

If I created it and released it before VB3 was installed could I just update it that way? And how thorough is that process, meaning does it keep the templates, etc?

Only replacements will be imported. Customized templates will be trashed.

Vb3 style will be completely different - and i believe vb2 styles won't be compatible with vb3 so there's no use doing anything with vb2 templates
