Title: How to modify the look of a Windows Client. Post by: pickard on January 03, 2014, 03:01:16 AM Hi
Simple modification of the look of windows QT is easy to a degree and I have found the same simple changes in countless coin creation guides. for example changing the PNG files in the src/qt/res/images and /icons folders. And this works great to modify a few simple things, like the wallet logo, icons and splash screen. But does anyone know how to go a step further and where to make changes to things like the, window color. Or to add a different background color from the boring grey or even add a background image / png. Also maybe there is a simple way to change the QT text color. Does anyone know what files in the source I should be looking to change? Thanks in advance! Title: Re: How to modify the look of a Windows Client?

I would also like to know how to do this. anyone? Title: Re: How to modify the look of a Windows Client. Post by: deepceleron on January 03, 2014, 11:52:12 PM The UI elements are based on your Qt OS theme or operating system configuration. On Windows, the element colors are those of your OS theme. Type "Change windows color and metrics" into your Win7 search bar, change the menu color to blue, and you get a blue menu in Bitcoin. Changing basic elements away from those the OS or user has specified is undesirable.

I found it, you need to edit the QT designer files that end in .ui Title: Re: How to modify the look of a Windows Client. Post by: greyman on January 04, 2014, 05:11:27 PM src\qt\bitcoingui.cpp and .h
