Use FileSelector instead.

BTW, funny, if you closely investigate these pictures, U++ is able to use this particular theme better than XP (see appearance of droplists) Smile

To Laurice: Skinning does not affect whole dialogs, just appearance of widgets. We need FileSel to have something available on all platforms.

Sorry for late reply, I investigated CtrlLib package and looked into the FileSel layout, yes it's my bad. Sad

Use FileSelector instead.

FileSelector use old style(98),the underlying API should be new (2000/xp)

It uses XP theme if you add a .manifest file to your project.
And additionally, you have to add a .rc file with content, something like:
1 24 "MyProject.manifest"
5555 ICON "MyProject.ico"


The MyProject.manifest is something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<assembly
   xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1"
   manifestVersion="1.0">
<assemblyIdentity
    processorArchitecture="x86"
    version="5.1.0.0"
    type="win32"
    name="MyProject.exe"/>
    <description>MyProject description</description>
    <dependency>
    <dependentAssembly>
    <assemblyIdentity
         type="win32"
         name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls"
         version="6.0.0.0"
         publicKeyToken="6595b64144ccf1df"
         language="*"
         processorArchitecture="x86"/>
    </dependentAssembly>
    </dependency>
</assembly>

How user friendly Smile

I guess I will rather change the look of dialog to be more platform -like in the next iteration.
