Is it possible to get standard "XP"-look (common controls 6) buttons in a themed dialog (e.g. office2003/visual studio 2005) without a thin border around the button?

Yes, it is. Just don’t subclass buttons with the CExtButton class.

I know this is possible, but then i get a small ugly gray border around the button. This is very apperant on the office 2003 theme when using the standard blue XP colors. On the windows XP theme or visual studio 2005 theme this is hard to spot, since the background is gray as well on those.

We believe it’s possible to render Windows XP theme parts for the button common control independently. But we should investigate this problem in details first. In fact, this control will not be based on CExtButton and it will not be able to support separate drop-down and built-in menus. It will be able just to paint Prof-UIS themed background and Windows XP button shape over it.

Yes, that is what I’m looking for basically. Just like normal button except with themed background.

We coded a CXPButton class that it seems to be what you need. You can download it from our website.

Thank you very much. Will this class also be included in an upcoming release of Prof-UIS?

Just add this class to you application and it will work with any future release. We also plan to add the Native XP paint manager which supports the XP buttons.
