The widget styles for the Factor UI itself are just images, stored in
basis/ui/gadgets/theme. Reskinning is a simple matter of replacing
those images. But for end-user applications, you don't necessarily
have to stick with the Factor UI's widgets. Since you're only
targeting Windows, you can use the native Win32 APIs, or some other UI
toolkit library.
Yes, I was referring to the Win32 APIs. Is anyone working on this now?
This is not the best strategy, anyway, if a broad deployment is the
objective. The current Factor style reminds me of the Motif style.
