3D Shading Editor Description

When using the Windows Classic visual style, you can customize the colors of pretty much anything. However, unlike in Windows 3.1, when you change the color for 3D objects, such as buttons and dialogs, the highlight and shadow colors automatically change with it. This may seem nice, but what if you want to specify your own colors for this? Windows doesn't provide any method for this, except for editing the registry or theme files, which can be very inconvenient when you just want to see what it looks like. However, this program can change these colors independently. 3D Shading Editor is a handy tool that will enable you to easily modify the color of buttons in Windows. To use it, click the button for the color you want to change. You can look at "colors.bmp" for an example of where all these colors are on a button. Select the color you want from the dialog. Click Close when you're done and you want to finalize the color choices, or click Reset to reset all the colors back to the way they were when you ran the program. Please note, however, that if you click Close, run the program again, and click Reset, nothing will change. One more thing: when you reboot, the colors will go back to normal. If you like the new colors and want to keep them, simply go into the display properties where you can set the colors (Appearance, Advanced) and click OK on everything. It may say "Please Wait" for a second.
