How to Override Paint of Controls / Menu

closed account (o1vk4iN6)
I was wondering if there was a way to override the paint message for something like the context menu which is usually at the top of the window. I basically just want to change the color of the background so it can match the style of the rest of my gui.
If you just want to change the background color, have a look at SetMenuInfo

If you want to make other changes, it is rather more involved.

P.S. The menu at the top of the window is not a context menu; those are the popup menus that usuually appear near to the mouse pointer when you right click on a window.
