Yes, I suspected as much and have modified the code to use the XTP theme wrapper.

Hi,
 
UxTheme is partly hooked in SkinFamework. Only using our CXTPWinThemeWrapper you will get skin.  YOu can change your draw to use our CXTPWinThemeWrapper class:
 
 
CXTPWinThemeWrapper m_themeButton
 
m_themeButton.OpenThemeData(hWnd, L"BUTTON");
 
if ( m_themeButton.IsAppThemed())
{
m_themeButton.DrawThemeBackground(*pDC, BP_PUSHBUTTON, !pButton->GetEnabled() ? PBS_DISABLED : pButton->IsPressed() && pButton->IsHot() ? PBS_PRESSED :
    pButton->IsHot() ? PBS_HOT: pButton->IsFocused() ? PBS_DEFAULTED : PBS_NORMAL, rect, 0);
}

I have a custom slider control that is theme aware - on Windows 2000 it correctly identifies that no theming is present and draws using the old style API.

If I have statically linked the XTP skin engine do I need to explicitly add code to my control to call the XTP skin manager when drawing?

If so why? I can see that the Skin Manager is checking for calls to load UxTheme.dll - which is how the control detects the presence of theming

Any thoughts or comments on this please? Skin support for Windows 2000 was a big plus for me and I'd like it to work for all the controls I use in Riffster.

Thanks

Jerry
