[SOLVED] How to make themes for ultraux

[aden.anderson2001]

Hello. I have patched my 1909 windows 10 with ultraux and I can now use custom themes made for my build like from DevianArt. I want to create these kinds of themes myself too but I couldn't find a guide for it as the word custom theme is used for just changing cursor and wallpaper and color and things like that. Can you help me with finding a guide for this?

well, if you a member of DevainArt then this might help - https://www.deviantart.com/niivu/art/Guide-To-Installing-Windows-10-Themes-708835586

shame forum attached to installer is in German (unless you are as well) - https://mhoefs.eu/software_uxtheme.php?ref=syssel&lang=en

This is a guide to install these themes not create them. I have already said in my post that Im using these themes anyway. I need to know how to make them.

I wasn't sure as I wasn't a member so I couldn't check guide, sorry about that.

there isn't much out there on making themes

I found

you need:
Windows style builder (though it's called vista style builder it officially supports windows 7 & can be used to make windows 10 themes once you modify it a bit)

your choice of image editor (photoshop or gimp)

Theme building guide (it's for windows 7 but to understand the structure of a windows visual style & for learning the locations of parts & properties you really need to read this thoroughly)

and custom class maps, shellstyle & stylescripts to modify the default installation of windows style builder so that it supports windows 10 themes. you can get all that here (check the sticky threads):

there are only 4 google results searching for making themes for that program.
