Allow me to preface this post/complaint by saying that this is one of the best utilities that I've come across in my years of computing.
The only issue with this program, as far as I can tell, is that the 'Move to Other Monitor' and 'Maximize to Desktop' icons on the taskbar often look out of place - see this screenshot.
Is there currently a way for the user to change the images used there on the title bar? If there isn't, will support for this be added to UltraMon 3?
Thanks in advance.
Chris

Changing the button icon is supported, but the button background can't be changed, this is taken directly from the theme.
See UltraMon Help > Customization > Creating custom window buttons for details. Let me know if you have any questions.

Raising an old issue with this question. Anyway, I'm using a Windows 7 type theme on my Windows XP SP3 system. The buttons on the tile bar do not appear correctly. See this screen shot for an example. I choose this screen shot because it shows the title bar buttons but it also shows the UltraMon help which contains an example of what the buttons should look like.
The original answer to this topic was to look at the help file for how to create a custom icon however according to the help file that icon is only used in the System Tray. So the original questions remains; is it possible to create our own title bar button icons? Maybe you already have Windows 7 style buttons that I could download?

Version 3 no longer supports custom button icons. Can you post a download link for theme? I haven't been able to access the screenshot you posted ('image deleted' error).

Try this link. I must have boinked the pooch when I entered the link in the last post.
The theme can be found here and the download link is here.

I've been able to reproduce the issue, the problem is that the bitmap UltraMon uses to draw the button background is blank in this theme.
Currently there is no fix for this, except modifying the theme. If you're interested in doing this let me know.

I didn't create the theme but I'd like to let the author know about the issue so they can fix it. Please give me the details and I'll pass them along.
Thanks!

For the theme to work correctly with UltraMon, the captionbutton bitmap, for example AERO32_CAPTIONBUTTON_BMP, would need to contain the button background bitmaps.
