DarkTaskDialog

Win32 TaskDialog Dark Theme Header-Only Library

Project

Windows 10 and Windows 11 lack support for the dark mode in the TaskDialog API. This project adds support for the dark theme to all its features without losing functionality, including callbacks and multiple pages.

How it is done

• Detouring of DrawTheme... APIs
• Windows subclassing
• A lot of research and testing
• No undocumented functions are used

Dependencies

• Microsoft Detours - MIT licensed and lightweight

How to use

1. Include DarkTaskDialog.hpp in your project.
2. Call SFTRS::DarkTaskDialog::setTheme(dark|light) before displaying your first task dialog.
3. Call the function again with the other theme when you need to switch it.
