I dislike the plus/minus icons in the U++ tree control and I would like to have dotted lines instead of solid lines as some window apps do, as in the attached image. As discussed in a previous thread I can see how to change the plus minus images.

Is all the code that would need to be changed in the TreeCtrl::Paint function? I don't know the U++ library very well yet and I haven't spent enough time to figure out exactly where it's drawing the lines (there's no DrawLine in the Paint function) but I'm wondering if there's a simple change that would give dotted lines instead of solid lines and a slightly different line colour.

If I figure out how to change the code, do I have to maintain my own treectrl.cpp or can an extra style be added to CtrlLib treectrl?
