Hello all,
 
Does anybody have experience with custom controls that don't get skinned by the framework? How can you solve those problems? Do you have to commit to a specific interface or listen to certain messages? We have build our own scrollbar, but it won't get skinned.
 
Thanks!

Oleg,
 
Is there a posibillity to implement this? If so I can open a support ticket for a new feature.
I'm still curious how this CXTPWinThemeWrapper works. Maybe I can figure something out.

I found some information on using Themes. I haven't delved into it but it looks promising.
