Tiny tweak/hack in code needed
Tiny tweak/hack in code needed
Monday, July 16, 2018 by wiperr | Discussion: Beginners
Ok, so this doesn't have anything to do with Stardock's stuff, but I still thought it might be a good idea to ask here.
I'm trying to theme my TotalCMD in the same way as Sublime on right:

TC's seems to be rendering the marked "no good" borders by itself, so it's not an OS-governed thing
And for this reason, I assume the only way to edit these is by hacking the relevant lines of code (or similar).
Can anyone help with this?
I'd do it myself, but I don't even know how to figure out what renders these borders with certainty.
Thanks upfront.

It is part of the UI, and I did contact them via forums, but Ghistler's (creator) policy is "function over form", so no help with aesthetics.
I tried using Resource Hacker, it was built for this purpose, but I'm having trouble locating the exact line of code rendering these panel borders, so no luck there either...

It looks like the border is part of the UI. Perhaps contacting the Total Commander website's support section and explaining to them what you prefer. I say this because 'hacking it' might cause you undo difficulties.
