    That light blue highlight could be at Buttons, Boxes & Controls > Boxes > ComboBox > ReadOnly

    I use the same setup; Ultimate x86 and Win7 Style Builder 1.5 ...send me your *.msstyles and I'll take a look at it.

    I think you're right about that path. I'll work on it tomorrow. It's getting late.

    Thanks.

    OK, I see.....if you extract all images from Sonye.msstyles (I use Restorator) then I'm pretty sure those images are 654 to 657 ....I'll post some sample colors for you in few min.

    edit:

    yep, 654 to 657 .....you can edit them in pshop, paint, etc. and replace, easy.

    you're a legend! i truly appreciate this, it's so hard to see what is/not selected! :biggrin:

    by the way, you can make it blue or green, anything but clear.

    I don't use any third party players, so I can not duplicate those "errors", it works fine with WMP though.
    An exotic font are not the problem, if you don't have them install then Visual Style will use closest one default perhaps. The problem is with the color which is hard to find sometimes, specially when you use third party apps.

    Hmm, I checked all my themes (28) and only this "Aero Glass" doesn't display those fonts - they are white obviously (lol) ...as stated above, it is not that easy to find them, it could be located in so many places since white is very common color used.
    You could try and find it using Windows Style Builder 1.4 and above.
