XP Style colored buttons , possible?

[burners]

Thread says it all, I did some light searching but all I found where older threads so i didn't know if anything good has come up in the last year.

I dig the flat look for some stuff but this is a glossy looking GUI so the rounded buttons would look much better.

i don`y know what you want. post a screen of the GUI wich have the button that you want.

Did you tried the Valuater's?

There are lots of older threads that have valuable information in them (personal point of view).

There are a couple of answers on this....

For Buttons, you might want to take a look at ButtonHover()

Then, color the background with Skins....

for the actual CODE to use XP Theme...from Autoit Wrappers

; Control XP Style for Colors

; Author gafrost /Valuater

Dim $XS_n

 Func XPStyle($OnOff = 1)   
    If $OnOff And StringInStr(@OSTYPE, "WIN32_NT") Then
        $XS_n = DllCall("uxtheme.dll", "int", "GetThemeAppProperties")
        DllCall("uxtheme.dll", "none", "SetThemeAppProperties", "int", 0)
        Return 1
    ElseIf StringInStr(@OSTYPE, "WIN32_NT") And IsArray($XS_n) Then
        DllCall("uxtheme.dll", "none", "SetThemeAppProperties", "int", $XS_n[0])
        $XS_n = ""
        Return 1
    EndIf
    Return 0
EndFunc   ;==>XPStyle

Take a look at the posts by Yashied in this thread

custom drawing the buttons also works, but the implementation was screwed up by MS
