Additional Tools
This repository also contains several tools for Windows Visual Style files (.msstyles):
-
UxThemeEx: Provides many Visual Style functions from uxtheme.dll with the ability to draw native controls using a specific .msstyles file. Not intended for general use as it is quite fragile and may break if certain Windows components are updated.
-
ThemeBrowser: Allows viewing and comparing .msstyles files. It also provides helpful utilities to inspect images and recreate those with WPF paths.
-
ThemePreviewer: Provides previews and comparisons of built-in controls using Windows and WPF themes.
Building
Requires Visual Studio 2019 with .NET / C++ (v142) workloads including the Windows 10 SDK component.
UxThemeEx requires EasyHook via
vcpkg-built NuGet package. To build,
use the Tools\Build-Dependencies.ps1 script from a Visual Studio developer
prompt or similar.
To build a nuget package, run msbuild -t:Pack in the root directory and check
the dist directory.
