I haven't run Edita's Window Painter in anger for quite some time, since moving onto XP in fact. Only to find I couldn't select/drag/resize anything...

At first I thought this was something to do with a manifest file, but I ran it on 2.4 and got the same effect. I also thought it may be something like calling InitCommonControlsEx in Arwen, but I couldn't find that. Eventually I got it going by right-clicking on exw.exe (2.4), properties, disable visual themes.

My question is how might I do that from within Edita/CreateProcess, ie run with visual themes disabled?
