Add #include "DLL_OpenClose.au3" as the 1st include on every script that uses them DLLs and, it'll be better.

This is a great idea, thank you. Since there will be several files (.Au3 files plus icons folder), should I make the UDF be a sub-folder to keep organized?

I just wanted to clarify, the UDF will only be about dark mode. The reason for using your high DPI controls UDF is simply to ensure that the Examples visually appear at their best experience. Your UDF is the best for resizing all controls mathematically to match the DPI for the window.

Do you use scaling due to your Monitor ? If "no", the real answer is "not yet"
Looking at a HiDPI monitor is a mater of time. And seeing it in it own "max. resolution"

looks very nice.

So even if your project is for dark mode only, and the HiDPI is a "nice touch", the evolution of the HiDPI will be an inevitable thing that every year is more pressing.

Ok, back to topic.

hmm, I don't know. I don't think so. You're coding a UDF, not script per say. So no, the user can later add it to any folder the users wishes.
If the DLLs you open are just for your UDF then you should name the variables something like "$__g_MyUDF_hDLL_ThisOne", so that is not going to match some other common name, and you do you own DLL cleanup of the DLLs your UDF opens.

My main uses 125% scaling and I have another that uses 150%.

That screenshot of the help file looks sharp and amazing! By the way, the dark mode work that you are doing on that help file stuff is great. So much easier on the eyes.

GUIDarkTheme 0.9:

Overall subclassing performance improvements
Moved all DllOpen/DllClose and related functions to GUIDarkInternal.au3
Minor tweaks to menu and tab control colors

Mostly organizational and performance changes in this release.

I am thinking about Base64 encoding the icons from the /icons folder. Those are for the ListView/TreeView ImageLists.

Do Base64 encoded images allow for the transparency?

I assume that I would have to do one for each DPI size which is included in each .ico file.

Base64:
"Base64 encoding works by converting binary data (like images, files) into a text format using 64 printable ASCII characters, allowing it to be safely sent over text-based systems (email, HTTP). It groups input data into 24-bit blocks (three 8-bit bytes), splits these into four 6-bit chunks, and maps each 6-bit value to a character from its 64-character set (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, /), adding padding ( == or = ) for incomplete blocks. "

Image with transparency:
"While standard RGB images use three channels (red, green, and blue) to display color, images with transparency add this fourth alpha channel that controls opacity. Each pixel in the alpha channel contains a value that determines how transparent that pixel should be, from completely invisible to fully opaque."

Leaves in trees:
"Leaves serve multiple functions for a tree's ability to grow and thrive. The most well-known function of tree leaves is to facilitate the process of photosynthesis. This process occurs when the leaves use the energy from the sun to create fuel for the tree."

$GUI_CHECKED (1) = checked.ico = Radio, Checkbox, MenuItem or ListViewItem will be checked.
$GUI_INDETERMINATE (2) = ???????? = Checkbox having the tristate attribute will be greyed.
$GUI_UNCHECKED (4) = unchecked.ico = Radio, Checkbox, MenuItem or ListViewItem will be unchecked.

The indeterminate.ico is needed

This is a good point and something that I need to look into. Also I found a few other issues related to this. So thank you for bringing it to my attention.

I'm not sure if the indeterminate would work or not though. The ListView state imagelist only contains 2 image states while the TreeView imagelist only contains 3 image states. I could have it backwards, but one of them has 2 state images and the other has 3.

EDIT: It looks like I've got my TreeView ImageList completely backwards. 🤣

There seems to be a bug in AutoIt where GUICtrlSetState does not work at all for ListViewItems even though the documentation states that it does.

GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_CHECKED)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_UNCHECKED)

Those work appropriately for TreeView items but not ListView items. I am testing it with ListViews created with GUICtrlCreateListView (extended style $LVS_EX_CHECKBOXES) and the items created with GUICtrlCreateListViewItem.

Wow! That looks fantastic and works well too. Ideally I would like to get rid of those external icons, for sure.

So we could draw them, as you suggest. And look awesome, by the way.

While you were coding that, I also thought of another idea. The Fluent fonts that come with Win11 have them included. If we were to use the font method, we would simply have to alter the color and that is about it. Just another option anyway. The MDL2 font on Win10 has it as well but less rounded.

argumentum · 2026-03-03T18:12:43Z

Making something work with the latest is nice but, it should work with anything, anywhere. So make sure that it'd work even if the font is not in that PC. Maybe embed the font in the resources ( examples are everywhere ).

WildByDesign · 2026-03-03T18:31:09Z

@argumentum I keep updating your custom GDI+ example as you update it bit by bit. Without a doubt, that is the sharpest, nicest TreeView I have ever seen. Follows the sharpness with each DPI setting. I can't stop looking at it! 😃

Seriously, I am still checking and unchecking...

On a side note, it does not seem to behave appropriately with TreeViews that already have the $TVS_CHECKBOXES style. I'm trying to figure that out at the moment.

For sure you can use GD+ to draw the check / uncheck icons (bitmaps) as @argumentum did above.

can you remove the $TVS_CHECKBOXES style ( forcefully on the fly ) since the UDF is faking it ?

Yes I can add or remove styles, for sure.

@argumentum I just wanted to state the obvious: You do DPI better than Microsoft does! :thumbsup:

GUIDarkTheme.au3 incl. base64 icons:

This gives me a lot to learn from, I appreciate it. I've already tested it and it works great, but I'm going to go over the code as well because I want to learn more of the techniques. Thank you.

You are a genius, by the way.

UEZ · 2026-03-03T20:15:29Z

I updated also my example by drawing the checkbox using GDI+ with aa. It uses GDI and GDIPlus to create it -> see _SetDarkTreeViewCheckboxes() function.

Next step is to add DPI using _WinAPI_DPI.au3 from here:

Let's see how complicated it will be to draw all the controls on DPI changes...

@UEZ I apologize, but I think I need your help with the Base64 code. I am trying to switch your ICO code to load PNG instead. I have realized that AutoIt (or Windows) loads the incorrect DPI size from the ICO file, whereas from PNG it is sharp.

The Base64 that I have in here is from PNG. I think my problem is in this area:

$hBmp = _GDIPlus_BitmapCreateFromMemory(_checkedpng(), True)
        ;$hIcon_c = _GDIPlus_HICONCreateFromBitmap($hBmp)
        $hIcon_c = _GDIPlus_BitmapCreateHBITMAPFromBitmap($hBmp)
        _GDIPlus_ImageDispose($hBmp)

If you can get that PNG to load for the checked/unchecked state, I can do the rest of the DPI stuff. I will do a Switch Case for all of the Base64 from original msstyles resources.

For example, here is all of the Base64 DPI sizes for checked and most for unchecked (I still have to get the rest of unchecked):

GUIDarkTheme 0.9.1:

Using PNG resources instead of ICO
- Sharp ListView/TreeView checkbox images
- ICO was incorrectly loading the wrong icon size per DPI
Fixed issue with TreeView ImageList incorrect order

This release fixes the sharpness of the ListView/TreeView checkboxes and also the incorrect order of the TreeView ImageList.

Ideally, I would like to switch to using Base64 for these same PNG images so that we can have maximum sharpness and also so that the checkboxes match the checkbox of the regular checkbox 100%. But I am stuck on the Base64 part.
