Skinable Form with C#??
-
I have ... im creating a form skinner right now. it works quite good , im overriding the wm_ncpaint (and other related messages) to draw the form border and caption. currently im using gdi+ but will upgrade it to old gdi32 since gdi+ is horribly slow.. the stuff i have left to do is: make it work 100% with mdi forms... make it use layered windows for transparency instead of regions. make it draw the attatched menu (the menu is otherwise drawn at the default location ,which might be inside the caption if using a larger caption than normal) //Roger
