Just a Guess; but, I think you need to learn how to program using manifest files. Tim S
Thanks Tim, but it looks very strange. It can be proved with some resouce hacking tools that the manifest file is included in the binary file.
I also rewrite a manifest file and put it in the same directory, and also call InitCommonControlsEx function to register controls(but I think it is not necessary. wxWidgets should do it well).
If my project target file name is not changed, it is ok, if changed, no XP effect. I think it should be my fault, because a clear default wxSmith project will always show XP effect, even though the file name is changed. But it is really hard to me to debug. Could you or someone can give me some advice?
