Source code of this project: File:Cc.zip.
CSuperControl
It is a container control. It consists of two objects: CSmileControl and CSliderGroup. Method SizeChanged() calculates size and position of these embedded parts. Depending on the sizes, the embedded parts are displayed from top to bottom or from left to right. This control supports events handling - events are passed to the embedded control CSliderGroup. This control also displays the background of the current theme.
CSmileControl
This non-focusing control doesn't supports events handling. It's just displays the smile, considering coefficients of the deformation (iDeltaX, iDeltaY).
CSliderGroup
It is a container control. It consists of two sliders for defining two values. This control supports events handling. There are two possible result of event: focus changed or value of the slider changed.
CSimpleSlider
This simple control is used for displaying value ( dX or dY ) and for changing this value.
