I recently upgraded from a version of FWH from 2008 to 1507 and notice the following:

1. What used to be buttons with nicely rounded corners now have square corners. Any way to get to old style back?
2. The program icon no longer appears on the program shortcut or in explorer. When the program is open it does display on the windows task bar but looks really funky, with a white background . The icon displays with windows in the program but again looks funky with the while background. Before the background was always the same color as the windows background.
3. I use a panel on the left side of the screen with some buttons on it with bmp files and before they displayed nicely and the background was the same background as the panel. Now the background is a different color so it looks really funky. Buttons on a toolbar at the top look fine, however.

Could you post some screenshots ?

many thanks for your feedback,

Do you include a WindowsXP.Manifest in your RC file ?

It seems as it is missing in your current version

Thanks for that Antonio. With the manifest file the buttons are now rounded. But I still can't get the icon to work. I have in my .MAK file the line

IF EXIST tp.RES echo tp.RES >> b32.bc

The icon is in the tp.RES file and with the old FWH it worked fine, but it won't compile with the new FWH1507. Instead, I get a message

TP.RES contains invalid OMF record, type 0x00.

Any ideas?

Please post here your b32.bc file

The last two lines should be like this:

c:\bcc7\lib\psdk\shell32.lib,
tp.RES

Please modify your makefile

How should the mak file look? Those two lines currently read:

echo $(BCDIR)\lib\psdk\shell32.lib + >> b32.bc
echo tp.res >> b32.bc

Antonio,

Once again thank you very much!!! I figured it out and now it all works. Whew! I appreciate all your help

Regards,

David
