Hi,
 
Is it possible to set another font for form caption at runtime when Skin is already applied?
 
Thanks a lot

Hi Oleg,
 
It doesn't do what I want
 
Well this is what I tried:
  1. Exported Office2007.cjstyles to resource script file
  2. All images and ini files are in App.Path\res
  3. Code in form: 
    • Dim skinSchemaTemp As SkinSchema
    • Set skinSchemaTemp = SkinFramework.CreateSchema(App.Path & "\res", App.Path & "\res\themes.ini")
    • SkinFramework.SetWindowTheme frmMain.hWnd, skinSchemaTemp
  4. Returns error because schemaSkin is Nothing
 
Can you please tell me what is wrong?

Hi Oleg,
 
Set skinSchemaTemp = SkinFramework.CreateSchema(App.Path & "\res", "NormalBlue.INI")  works but entire form (caption, borders, system buttons etc. etc.) are just black, no images are shown. Also menu isn't showing, only dropdown menu items.
 
Do I have set something else?
 
Thanks

Hi Oleg,
 
This is what SkinBuilder exported in ini file:
 
ImageFile = Blue\FrameCaption.png
 
All images are in ...\res\*.png
Ini files are in ...\res\*.ini
 
 
What should it be?
 
I tried to change path in ini file:
 
  1. full path
  2. \res\FrameCaption.png
  3. FrameCaption.png

And it still didn't work

Hi,
 
replace
ImageFile = Blue\FrameCaption.png
to
ImageFile = FrameCaption.png
 
or move all images to Blue subfolder.

Hi Oleg,
 
I can't get it to work  I guess you have to test this yourself (maybe just once)
 
Thanks

Hi Oleg,
 
Thanks for sample, so now I know it can be done  I wonder why it doesn't work when exporting to resource ???
 
I will look into this again and report it to you (or others who want to do the same).
 
Thanks again
