ok I am trying to add TD4's scrollbars to the Milk2 vs but I can not get them to tile I have tried editing the .ini file of the vs and then compiling but it has no effect and in style builder I do not have the option of choosing the sizingtype for the scroll bars. Any help would be great.
Also how I do I get the shell style to work with my compiled .msstyle I have made so far.
thanks
do you want the traffic buttons too? because I have a visual style of what you're describing but it has the traffic buttons...If you want it, PM me.
nope I wanna keep the milk buttons just change the scrollbars I got the progress chunks to tile but I just can't get that option for the scrollbars its really frustrating cause I click on add property in stylebuilder and I don't have the option of adding the sizing type. So I then edited all the .ini's which is what I have done for a couple of other themes to add these scrollbars and although it worked for other themes it is not working for this one.
heres what you do. enter the folder where you have extracted the resources after importing the msstyle in stylebuilder. open the file *.xml (* inyour case will be whatever you have named the visual style) in notepad. scroll down and have a good look at the format of the various components. then you find the parts that contain the scrollbar definitions and simply add the sizingtype=whatever you want and the sizingmargins=whatever you want anywhere in the definiton clause. save the modified xml file. reload stylebuilder and presto ... you'll find what you need ready for you. just put in the correct values and compile. apply. bug hunt it out on your system and when it works post a link to a download location so we can see your handiwork.
shellstyle.dll files need to be inside the Shell\FOLDERNAME\ folders where the default shellstyle.dll will be in %windir%\Resources\Themes\yourthemename\Shell\NormalColor\. if you have substyles put the respective shellstyle.dll file in %windir%\Resources\Themes\yourthemename\Shell\NameofSubstyle\.
have fun and share this knowledge with others as well.
