      You probably need to handle all your own paint processing in the client and non-client areas of the window. See Painting and Drawing | Microsoft Docs[^].

            For MFC applications use the CMFCVisualManager Class | Microsoft Docs[^]. See also Visualization Manager[^] and the CodeProject article Adding New Theme Variations to the MFC Ribbon (CMFCVisualManager)[^]. For other GUI frameworks like Qt read the related documentation (styles and themes).

                  You can use a product such as [Code Jock](http://www.codejock.com/) which is a layer above MFC or .NET
