I want to add Theming to a TStringGrid and TInplaceEdit decendent where the grid draws it's headers themed and the edit draws a themed ellipse, drop down and up/down glyph. I know that I need to check if XP and if theming is enabled but haven't found any examples of anything to get me started. ~ JD Back to top Remy Lebeau (TeamB) Guest Posted: Thu Aug 18, 2005 9:16 am    Post subject: Re: XPTheme "JD" <nospam (AT) nospam (DOT) com> wrote Quote: I want to add Theming to a TStringGrid and TInplaceEdit decendent where the grid draws it's headers themed and the edit draws a themed ellipse, drop down and up/down glyph. Good luck. That would require essentially re-writing all of the TStringGrid's drawing code from scratch. And believe me, TStringGrid has a lot of custom drawing going on.

There is a whole chapter in MSDN that shows how drawing code is supposed to take themes into account. Using Windows XP Visual Styles http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/commctls/userex/cookbook.asp Look at the "Using Visual Styles with a Custom Control" section.

I'm really only concerned with the grid's fixed cells and can't I handle that in it's DrawCell method? As for the TInplaceEdit, I'm already drawing the glyphs using DrawFrameControl so wouldn't that be more easily accomplished? Quote: Then you aren't looking very hard.

All joking aside, I *never* ask for source and *always* share mine (nonpropriatary). It's just that I have way too many priorities that need to be accomplished and need a little help to expidite.
