We use Direct2D to render the SVG to a bitmap taking into account any padding I find the the CJ drawing code and set the bitmap on the button.

We have been using D2D for a good while now and render bitmaps, icons etc. to put on our ribbon, dialogs, image lists etc. If CJ's SVG support has any api to render a bitmap or icon you can set the bitmap or icon on a button or static and use BS_BITMAP or SS_BITMAP (/ICON).

Does present a bit of pain when supporting all the Windows DPI contexts since they are pre-rendered.
