Disable visual themes

Is there a way to disable visual themes in Paint.NET for testing?

Setting the flag 'Properties->Compatibity->Disable visual themes' does not work.

Use the Windows Personalization control panel and switch to a high-contrast theme.

 

Try the attached Classic theme that I made which should look fairly close to ye ol' "Classic" themes from XP and before.

Thanks I had no real idea what high-contrast does especially that is enters something like a classic mode.

 

On XP testing was easy. I just created a copy of Paint.NET.exe and changed the flag in properties.

 

I guess just because of the testing efort it was a good idea to drop XP and Vista support.

More important to get high dpi to run perfect. ;-)

 

I have seen the 4.5.2 high dpi fixes for the arrows in toolstrip and I would say someone should do a code review.
