XP styled thin progress bar
Hi

Would like to embed XP styled progress bar with green blocks . Please find the attached image wherein the green progress is what I need. I'm using UMUI interface.

XPStyle on (If running on XP and the Luna theme is active (it is by default) then you will get it)

Have XPStyle on and XP default theme active. Still only see blue progress . What is the issue here ?

UMUI might be turning off XPStyle so it can style the buttons on its own. Try putting "XPStyle on" as the very last command on the script.

Do you at least get the green blocks with the following full example?

!include "MUI2.nsh"
!include "WinMessages.nsh"
!include "nsDialogs.nsh"

OutFile "test.exe"

Page custom CreatePage

Section
SectionEnd

!define /math PBM_SETRANGE32 ${WM_USER} + 6

XPStyle on

Function CreatePage
    nsDialogs::Create 1018
    Pop $0
    ${If} $0 == error
        Abort
    ${EndIf}
    
    ${NSD_CreateProgressbar} 0 0 100% 10% ""
        Pop $0
        SendMessage $0 ${PBM_SETRANGE32} 0 100
        SendMessage $0 ${PBM_SETPOS} 33 0

    nsDialogs::Show
FunctionEnd
!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "English"

If you don't.. are you sure that your current theme (which the installer uses when XPStyle is on) actually uses the green progressbars?

My Apologies. Actually putting XPStyle On in the last worked.
When I tested , XP theme was off and hence the misunderstanding.
But now and new issue . I see a blackborder on the checkbox label control when the XPStyle is On .Progress bar appears greeen as expected.
Let me Know.

Might be part of your theme?

!include "MUI2.nsh"
!include "WinMessages.nsh"
!include "nsDialogs.nsh"

OutFile "test.exe"

Page custom CreatePage

Section
SectionEnd

!define /math PBM_SETRANGE32 ${WM_USER} + 6

XPStyle on

Function CreatePage
    nsDialogs::Create 1018
    Pop $0
    ${If} $0 == error
        Abort
    ${EndIf}
    
    ${NSD_CreateProgressbar} 0 0 100% 10% ""
        Pop $0
        SendMessage $0 ${PBM_SETRANGE32} 0 100
        SendMessage $0 ${PBM_SETPOS} 33 0

    ${NSD_CreateCheckbox} 0 20% 30% 10% "Black border?"
        Pop $0
        
    nsDialogs::Show
FunctionEnd
!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "English"

Should result in something like...

This turned out to be an issue with UMUI itself which is what I use. I'm setting the background image for the dialog using the following

!define UMUI_UNIQUEBGIMAGE
!define UMUI_UNUNIQUEBGIMAGE

!define UMUI_PAGEBGIMAGE
!define UMUI_UNPAGEBGIMAGE
!define UMUI_PAGEBGIMAGE_BMP "<path to BMP>"

The following lines when commented , does not show up the blackborder in the license page .
