[Question] How would you go about making GUI theme for c++ win32? - calvv - Mar 16, 2016
As the title says. How would you design and create custom buttons, textboxes and form Layouts in a c++ win32 application? I tried to search but I did not know exactly what to search for so I am turning this question to you guys!

Do you know how to program in C++? Since if not don't even bother trying just go with C#. Easier for making Win32 Applications.
Or if your consistent on using C++, lookup QT Library, makes the GUI programming resonantly easier.
Or if you want to make a GUI using WINAPI: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_API
Cheers

Thanks for posting, I am going to take a look in to that. I have to use c++ otherwise I would use c#! :)
