Hi,

I've just found out that a window created by a MessageBox function is immune to ApplyTheme. It still has the default Windows look.
Since no one has complained about it, it's not a big deal but from now on, it catches my eye.
Is there a way how to easily fix this? (And no, replacing MessageBox with a pfc messagebox is not an option, there are too many messageboxes all over the place).
Using PB 2022 R3.

Regards,
Tomáš

You can create a global function messagebox and edit the source to include all possible options. See below.

global type messagebox from function_object
end type

forward prototypes
global function integer messagebox (string as_title, string as_text, icon aico_icon, button abut_button, integer ai_default)
global function integer messagebox (string as_title, string as_text, icon aico_icon, button abut_button)
global function integer messagebox (string as_title, string as_text, icon aico_icon)
global function integer messagebox (string as_title, string as_text)
end prototypes

global function integer messagebox (string as_title, string as_text, icon aico_icon, button abut_button, integer ai_default);

// code do display window goes here 

end function

global function integer messagebox (string as_title, string as_text, icon aico_icon, button abut_button)
return messagebox( as_Title, as_Text, aico_icon, abut_button, 1 )
end function

global function integer messagebox (string as_title, string as_text, icon aico_icon)
return messagebox( as_Title, as_Text, aico_icon, OK!, 1 )
end function

global function integer messagebox (string as_title, string as_text)
return messagebox( as_Title, as_Text, Information!, OK!, 1 )
end function
