Hi

1) I succeed to change right context menu colors ( blue and grey shown on screenshot ) following help from this topic ( http://vistastylebuilder.com/forum/index.php?topic=2069.msg11858#msg11858) but problem is I can't figure how to get rid of the border or have same color as background( would like to have a windows 10 style ) I tried what albertt to showed on topic but failed

2) I changed caption text on colors & colorimetrics to white but have some weird results ( on black windows title )




drives me crazy ...

thanks and have a good day

For the color behind the title bar text. Only for SOLID COLOR FRAMES:

1) Color your all your top frame images:

Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Frames > Window > Top > Active
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Frames > Window > Top > Inactive
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Frames > Window > Top > MaxActive
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Frames > Window > Top > MaxInactive

2) Change the values of COLORIZATIONCOLOR and COLORIZATIONOPACITY to zero at:

Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Frames > Window > Top > Active
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Frames > Window > Top > Inactive
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Frames > Window > Top > MaxActive
Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Frames > Window > Top > MaxInactive

3) Find the integer and hex values of your color using this:

http://vistastylebuilder.com/forum/index.php?topic=1187.0

( for example in your screenshot the top frame color is rgb ( 24, 24, 24) so the integer value is -15198184 and the hex value is 0xFF181818 then

4) Change the value of Fonts, Colors, & System Metrics > Colors (Globals) > COLORIZATIONCOLOR to -15198184

5) In your .theme file add ColorizationColor=0xFF181818 and change the value of Autocolorization to zero)

6) The text colors are at Fonts & System Metrics > CAPTIONTEXT and INACTIVECAPTIONTEXT

7) If you want to use a gradient or transparency you'll need to use this:

As far as the context menu Albertt To's method works fine. Make sure you follow it EXACTLY. You may have to adjust the BORDERSIZE values

Very nice hint  Cheesy - it works!

Now I have a further question: How can I put a little space before and after the captiontext? Is this possible?
In my example I switched the ColorizationColor into black.

See the picture. I'm looking forward to an answer
