This is an alpha release and likely has bugs. Make sure you create a system restore point. Use on your own risk!
Because sometimes a theme breaks your desktop environment and a system restore point will be of great use.

Version 2.0.0.0 is a C# port of msstyleEditor 1.5.0.0, to ease building and to be more attractive for developers. It shall provide
more opportunity for growth and improvement.

  • improved user interface and general looks (closes #60, #72)
  • found and fixed the issue behind error 0x90070490 (closes issue #48 and #67)
  • large images can be scrolled now (DWMWindow image atlas)
  • added a window that displays various control for easy preview
  • property view displays a help text for many properties
  • INTLIST and COLORLIST props can be edited now

Known Issues:

  • All properties can be removed. but not all added again. Resources behind them (fonts, images) stay untouched.

  • The "Test" feature only works when the style was opened from its theme folder, because msstyleEditor and Windows need to locate
    the accompanying .mui files for the string table resource. It also works if the style itself contains the string table.
