Colors in my dialog...
-
Hi! I have a problem with colors in my C++ MFC application. The dialog window looks for what colors windows have in the registry and uses these colors to color the dialog. Thats the system colors that are located in the registry under the key: "MyComputer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Colors". These are the so called system colors, the colors the system sets for your dialog (if you don't draw it yourself). What I want to do is, I'd like my dialog window to look for it's own colors in the same kind of way, but at another location, wich I would have define. Maybe,"MyComputer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MyProgram\Colors" where I can set the dialog window colors myself. To do this, I have to change where in the registry my dialog window looks for it's colors. Adding the necissary keys and colors is no biggie, but how do I redirect where\how the program looks for these colors? If you don't know how to do this, could you help me with how the overriding of the OnPaint function should look like for any of the following things: A slider, ComboBox, the menu, the dialog window and boarder. Thx, most thankfull for help. =) /Fredrik
