[help] I Need A Solution To This Problem

Hi everybody,

I have a brushed visual style and I don't like the background of the window left panel. I wanna change the bg of the arrowed area in the picture to white with ResHacker, actually I'm n ewbie. could someone give me quick steps of what to do..

Some ppl advised me to use ResHacker. I have tried the Reshacker and tried to modify the dll file coming with the style but I was really lost and confused...it seems that it needs someone experienced with the names of the areas of the visual style..

yeah, reshack shellstyle.dll and change the color values to 255 255 255 (white).

you might be able to edit shellstyle.dll in stylebuilder as well.

I'm sorry but which value should I change to 255 255 255? I mean what is the name of that value? cuz there are plenty of values with colors. do u mean to change all color values???

see in the picture is the shellstyle.dll when I opened it in ResHacker. which column should I edit?? 1 or 2 or what?

#203554

open uifile 1 and then go to line

element [id=atom(sectionlist)]

{

background: gradient(argb(0,203, 203, 203), argb(0,192, 192, 192), 1);

and change this values, you can even had a bitmap file to make your background,

hope that you understand it if not P.M.
