Version 2.0.0.0 is a C# port of msstyleEditor 1.5.0.0, to ease building and to be more attractive for developers. It hopefully provides more opportunity for growth and improvement.

Changes since 1.5.0.0:

  • improved user interface and general looks (closes issue #60 and #72)
  • found and fixed the issue behind error 0x90070490 (closes issue #48 and #67)
  • large images can be scrolled now (DWMWindow image atlas)
  • image view now highlights the part of the image atlas according to the ATLASRECT prop.
  • image props are no longer listed and selectable in the class view, but in the image view
  • added a window that displays various control for easy preview
  • property view displays a help text for many properties
  • INTLIST and COLORLIST props can be edited now
  • new render view tries to render part backgrounds like Windows would
  • "Save" now creates a mostly self-contained style that contains all string table language variants. It no longer references any MUIs. The old behaviour "Save with MUI", is accessible from the "Save" buttons dropdown menu.

Changes since 2.0.0.0-beta:

  • fixed issue of not always detecting a string table
  • fixed being unable to export and replace secondary images (closes issue #80)

Known Issues

  • All properties can be removed. but not all added again. Resources behind them (fonts, images) stay untouched.

(download removed; see version 2.0.0.1 please)

V 2.0.0.0 - beta Pre-release
Pre-release

This is a beta release. Make sure you create a system restore point. Use on your own risk!
Because sometimes a theme breaks your desktop environment and a system restore point will be of great use.

  • introducing resizeable and dockable panels
  • image props are no longer listed and selectable in the class view, but in the image view
  • image view now highlights the part of the image atlas according to the ATLASRECT prop.
  • new render view tries to render part backgrounds like Windows would
  • "Save" now creates a mostly self-contained style. Old behaviour "Save with MUI", is accessible from the "Save" buttons dropdown menu. This is the opposite of the alpha behaviour.

Version 2.0.0.0 is a C# port of msstyleEditor 1.5.0.0, to ease building and to be more attractive for developers. It shall provide
more opportunity for growth and improvement.

  • improved user interface and general looks (closes #60, #72)
  • found and fixed the issue behind error 0x90070490 (closes issue #48 and #67)
  • large images can be scrolled now (DWMWindow image atlas)
  • added a window that displays various control for easy preview
  • property view displays a help text for many properties
  • INTLIST and COLORLIST props can be edited now

Known Issues:

  • All properties can be removed. but not all added again. Resources behind them (fonts, images) stay untouched.

  • The "Test" feature only works when the style was opened from its theme folder, because msstyleEditor and Windows need to locate
    the accompanying .mui files for the string table resource. It also works if the style itself contains the string table.
