Shellstyle top part: Explorer & Shell > Explorer > CommandModule > <1>
the blue line there:  Explorer & Shell > Shell > PreviewPane > <3>
Searchbox text should be:  Address, Breadcrumb & Search > Search > Edit > Basic > Normal > Active > EditText
For start menu it should be all about sizingmargnis.

I learned it is possible to change the text of search box (not only the font, the glow and its color, but directly the text) if i edit the browseui.dll.mui file

I extract this file with restorator, but after what kind of software must i use to realize this edition, because Dev- C++ 4.9.9.2 doesn't seem to work ? When i restart, the text stays the same

any help is very appreciated, I try to change the text for others parts of the interface

How do I change the font?  I changed all instances of 'Italic' to bold but the searchbox stays the same.
I know it uses the size defined in global property ICONTITLEFONT:FONT.

The italicization must be defined outside of MSSTYLES file.  But where...

Hi Kerry

Address, Breadcrumb & Search > Search > Edit > Basic > Normal > Active > EditText

But... but it doesn't work for 7  :'(

At least I don't think it does... I think my suspicion is correct as everyone else has the same text there in Windows 7.
Thanks for trying to help, rajtheeban.

It's nice that Windows 7 shares and reuses its resources, but it's hell for us skinners.  >:(
