bbColor3dc v1.3
bbColor3dc is a plugin for Blackbox for Windows
copyright © 2004-2009 grischka
Description:
According to the current blackbox style, bbColor3dc searches
and applies a "3DC" set of system colors as generated by 3DCC
(3D Color Changer) to the windows GUI.
bbColor3dc looks for a 3DCC color scheme in the following locations:
- In the style itself, immediately preceeded by a commentline
containing "3dc" and the stylename or "start"
Example: ! -- minimal.3dc --
6781065
...
or: ! -- 3dc theme start --
6781065
...
- In a separate file with the name of the style and
the extension ".3dc" in three locations:
- in the directory of the style itself
- in a subdirectory "3dc" from where the style is located.
- in a subdirectory "3dc" from the Blackbox directory.
Examples:
Current style: "styles\misc\minimal"
3DC file: "styles\misc\minimal.3dc"
or "styles\misc\3dc\minimal.3dc"
or "c:\blackbox\3dc\minimal.3dc"
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Alternatively:
If no 3dc file is found, bbColor3dc sets some colors from the
current style similar to the BBColor plugin by qwilk and NC-17.
Colors are set for:
- Window Caption Bar
- Menu Hilite Bar
- ToolTips
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation:
1. Put bbColor3dc.dll somewhere in the blackbox\plugins folder.
2. Load it from the plugin-config menu, or add it's relative path
to "plugins.rc".
