Thanks, works great for the icons!!! I couldn't however, understand how to use the example to change the vertical splitter into a horizontal splitter with updown arrows. The marlett character "v" for up/down arrows is great but I couldn't get it to size right. with the TextOutW definition of "dll gdi32 #TextOutW hdc x y @*lpString c". For some reason, it was getting extremely large or small when I put variable or absolute integer values in for x and y depending on the size and height/width of the splitter bar.
Thanks though for an amazing UI element.

Hi Gintaras,
I am trying to use this function in an executable therefore the icon I refer to will need resource id. Unfortunately, if I include a resource id in the filepath for the icon, it fails to appear when I run the dialog:


Code:
Copy      Help
__Hicon-- ico=LoadImageW(0 @IconPath IMAGE_ICON 0 0 LR_LOADFROMFILE)

Is there a way to get this into an executable?

Now added code for horizontal splitter too.

Can be
GetFileIcon(":5 $qm$\cut.ico")

many many thanks Gintaras!

Hi Gintaras,
This is probably figure-out-able from what you have in the section and examples but I am still having trouble. I would like to give a color to both the background dialog and the splitter. Perhaps same perhaps different.
To give dialog background color, I use this:

Code:
Copy      Help
DT_SetBackgroundColor(hDlg 0 0xB48246) ;;blue 70 130 180

If there was a way to similarly assign color to this element, that would be great. I guess if it was transparent, it would take the background color but still be grab-able?

I see that this may be relevant but not yet sure how to implement:

Code:
Copy      Help
SetBkMode hdc TRANSPARENT

Not sure what this would do with any draw-on-controls.

Thanks for any help!

Example with 3 splitters. Vertical transparent, horizontal yellow, vertical with arrows and icon.

weird, example not working in installed or portable versions of QM editor. - splitters remain standard default color.
Will try later to put it into my specific code.
