Per Pixel Tool Windows and Border around windows

Thursday, January 15, 2009 by chiwou82 | Discussion: Skinning

I have 2 probs

 

1. I created per pixel tool windows but Windowblinds didn't show them

Do I have to activate them or something

 

2. There is border in some programs like notepad, I found out that it has something to do with sunkedge.bmp from the combobox controls, but when I made it complete blank (white) this border becomes black, don't know why

 

 

system: wb6 sks6 win server 2003

try magic pink (255,0,255 or #ff00ff) that is the color for transparent when using .bmps

You can edit buttonface light and shadow colors in SKS for your theme. No need to dig around in registry.
