Prototype custom check boxes

[hutch--]

I am just sketching up this technique, it works OK but I would like to make it into a single procedure call. At the moment it requires 2 handles for each check box and this makes it harder to use.

This looks vaguely familiar. You shouldn't need two handles.

I don't have 64 set up on this machine, I'll look at what you've come up with for the checkboxes when I do have 64 bit rolling...

I don't know what you have had in mind but this demo is a composite of two controls, a standard check box with no text and a custom control that displays the text and works like a button. When I get a bit more time, I may try it out in a separate window to encapsulate it. The idea is a check box that is not limited by the system settings colours where the text and background match the client area back colour.

Ah, I see. Now I'll have to get 64 bit up and running to see it.
