Transform your Windows 11 applications with custom titlebars in just 3 lines of code:

• 20 Professional Themes - From Dark Mode to Electric Blue, instantly apply beautiful
color schemes
• Custom Colors - Full RGB control for unlimited design possibilities
• Automatic Child Windows - Set once, style everywhere - all dialogs, alerts, and filepickers automatically match
• Zero Complexity - No timers, no handles, no headaches - just simple commands
• Perfect Integration - Works seamlessly with AlertBox, InputBox, FileOpen, and all VisualNeo dialogs

Three lines. That's all it takes to transform your entire application:
xtbTitleBar_SetColor "50" "100" "150" ""
xtbTitleBar_SetTextColor "255" "255" "255" ""
xtbTitleBar_EnableAutoStyle ""
Every window in your app now has a beautiful blue titlebar with white text.

Or Use Built-In Themes
Prefer ready-made professional styles? Pick from 20 gorgeous themes:
xtbTitleBar_SetGlobalTheme "6" ' Dark Mode
xtbTitleBar_EnableAutoStyle ""
Your entire app instantly adopts a sleek, modern dark theme.

Note: I removed the animations from the titlebars plugin. I was getting a few intermittent errors.. So I decided to remove it...

The plugin will only work on windows 11.
Cheers

Hi, Anthony LaTorre.

Tested on Windows 10 22H2. I can't see the effect, or I'm not understanding it.

Thank you for testing... The plugin will only work on Windows 11, it uses the "Desktop Window Manager "attributes that were introduced in Windows 11 Build 22000. It is not supported in Windows 10. You could still use it in your projects using the [WindowsVerName] global variable to determine the Windows Version.

Again thank you for testing, and I will update my original post with this information.
