Draw directly on the menubar. http://www.dotnetrix.co.uk/menus.html --> Custom MenuBar color Use CreatePatternBrush instead of CreateSolidBrush. Add a right-aligned ownerdraw menuitem. http://dotnet.mvps.org/dotnet/faqs/?id=rightalignmenuitem&lang=en Show quoteHide quote "Brian Henry" <brianiupmsdn@newsgroups.nospam> wrote in message news:Or%23v5oJQFHA.2000@TK2MSFTNGP15.phx.gbl... >I know what owner drawing is, but it never seems to let me draw on the >actual menu bar which is where i need to place the graphic > > "Scott Swigart [MVP]" <sc***@swigartconsulting.com> wrote in message > news:u1Xds0DQFHA.4024@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... >> You want to look into something called "owner drawing".
