Remarks

The Theme property establishes the visual presentation of the shortcut bar, and there are 12 styles to choose from. Furthermore, themes have their own hot track styles and margin settings, which will be used if you have the HotTrackStyle or Margins property set to "Default". However, you can modify the hot track style or margins of any theme to suit your needs.

Some themes render special groups differently for emphasis. See the GroupSpecial property for more details.

Here are screenshots of the available themes. Note that these screenshots were taken in Windows 8.1, and some themes adjust to the systems colors and may therefore be different on your system.
