midix Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 I am creating a theme for myself - I prefer some darker elements. I use Ave Vista/Windows 7 StyleBuilder.I have customized many elements already, colorized images as I like and now all items in lists and menus (simple lists, listboxes, folder views) appear pretty good, but there are two problems for now:- the items in Task Manager window do not change color to white when I select them. Why so? I mean - the selected text elsewhere (like in folder views) becomes white. Obviously there is some special property needed for Task Manager, but I cannot find it. Can anybody help?- the item descriptions (like disk space, library description, details) also do not respond to selection. I found this:Explorer & Shell > Explorer > Items View > ItemsView > Subheader > Normalto change the color from light gray to some other, but it works globally for all states (hot, selected, normal). How can I get it to appear lighter when selected?I have no idea where to look further - is it in shellstyle.dll or msstyle? And which property is it? Can I use StyleBuilder or ResourceHacker to change it? Maybe you can suggest some place where I could look for an answer?Thanks.screenshot:As you see, in folder view items have white text but black text is left in Task Manager and Select program (and also Open/Save dialogs).
