Using WinAPI, resources version?
« on: October 31, 2009, 03:50:04 AM »
Hi, I'm programming on Windows Vista, using Pelles' dialog based project, and the resource editor.

The problem I'm having is with the version of the elements I'm using, they dont seem to use the Vista version of them, but an older version instead.

Like the calendar for instance, Vista has a nice animated calendar, so i place a calendar in my dialog using the resource editor, running test shows the Vista calendar, but after compiling my pelles project, i get stuck with the old windows calendar...

Something similar happens with other elements like treeview, etc.

I was wondering if there would be some compiler directive or project option to use the newer version of these elements. Thanks.
