Hey all, Has anyone found or stumbled over a way to change the titlebar color (and I dont mean replacing it with a custom one) If you have some code or know of a place where api may be available I would appreciate it.
Cheers all

The only way to do it would be to change the whole system colors. And I'm pretty sure you don't want to do that. :(
Unless there's so magical new way that's been discovered in the last few months that I haven't heard about? But last I recall, that was the only solution anyone ever came up with.
There are API's available to do this. I am sure i have seen this thing in action somewhere. I just do not know where !!!
vbthunder.com USED to have an article about how he made vertical and sideways gradients when windows didn't have that capability (win 95). it would draw on the title bar. if you have ZoneAlarm you would see that the title bar conforms to your system size settings, because it is drawing on the bar itself.
You can't change the color of the title bar simply through API. You just cant.Quote:

But DRAWING a title bar on is different. There's also an example of this on Planet Source Code somewhere.
That's what i meant. I expected you to be smart enough !!!Quote:

I was so wrong.
Then why did you say the opposite thing, if that's what you meant?Quote:
