How to use brush with Buttonbar and others?

Hi,

i'm trying to add a new look to my app by adding a brush to my Dialogs. But i cannot figure out how to do the same with the Buttonbar, the Menu and the lower part of the window (where the date etc. is located).

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

John.

Hello John,

You can use TSButton for ButtonBar's brush.

Hello John,

I have not any solution for Statusbar and Folders to brush look.

If you want different style of Statusbar and Folders, you can use VBar and New fix Folders( put ICON and BMP of Title ).I have C5 Folder full functions, but it have not compatible background when Dialog set Brush.

Richard
