Kind folks,
I'm a newbie on this forum having just discovered the wonders of WindowBlinds.
I'm a software developer and I have an older windows app that I would like to investigate if I can give it its very own theme - just like as if I selected one fo a great WindowBlinds themes BUT... only for this one application.
The point being that because of some weird custom controls in this application, if I simply provide a manifiest file some of the weird pseudo-combo boxes do not work when enabling MS XP visual style.
However - the amazing WindowBlinds skins DO let my custom controls work!!!
Fantastic but I can't distribute this 3rd party app (WindowBlinds) with my application so does anybody know what I need to do in order to get a WindowBlinds-like theme working JUST for my application in windows XP??
Hoping that somebody can help me out here or maybe point me in the right direction.
Thank You,
Simon
