Window Titlebar Font Color (Type: Color) The font color of the caption on title bar. Titlebar (Type: Image) Sunisoft Skin Solutions v2 supports 2 modes of the title bar definiens: 3 sections and 5 sections. For 3 sections mode, a titlebar image is separated into 3 parts. Part #1 is 'left section', which will be painted on the left side of the title bar in original size. Part #2 is 'middle section', which will be stretch(horizontal) painted on the middle part of the title bar between left section and right section. Part #3 is 'right section', which will be painted on the right side of the title bar in original size. An example of 3 sections mode titlebar: For 5 sections mode, a titlebar image is separated into 5 parts. Part #1 is 'left section', which will be painted on the left side of the title bar in original size. Part #2 is 'caption section', which will be stretch(horizontal) painted after the 'left section'. The width of the 'caption section' is determined by the length of the caption. Part #3 is 'bridge section', which will be painted after 'caption section' in original size. Part #4 is 'middle section', which will be stretch(horizontal) painted on the middle part of the title bar between bridge section and right section. Part #5 is 'right section', which will be painted on the right side of the title bar in original size.

The client area of window, will be filled with the color which you define between the left and right borders. Bottom Border (Type: Image) You can separate the bottom border into 3 parts manually.
