Here is dll code I use:

	break;  
  
	default:  
		break;  
	}  
	return DefSubclassProc(hWnd, uMsg, wParam, lParam);  

The problem is that changing clrText and clrTextBk as well as font has no effect on the control.
If I change clrFace then control painting glitches like so:

The output I get from the dll:

    In one of my old codes, I did this for Header painting =>

    List-View-Header.jpg

    LRESULT CALLBACK ListViewSubclassProc(HWND hWnd, UINT uMsg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam, UINT_PTR uIdSubclass, DWORD_PTR dwRefData)
    {
        static HFONT hNewFont = NULL;
        switch (uMsg)
        {
        case WM_NOTIFY:
        {
            LPNMHDR pnmhdr = (LPNMHDR)lParam;
            switch (pnmhdr->code)
            {
            case NM_CUSTOMDRAW:
            {
                LPNMCUSTOMDRAW pNMCustomDraw = (LPNMCUSTOMDRAW)lParam;
                switch (pNMCustomDraw->dwDrawStage)
                {
                case CDDS_PREPAINT:
                {
                    return CDRF_NOTIFYITEMDRAW; //| CDRF_NOTIFYPOSTPAINT | CDRF_NOTIFYSUBITEMDRAW;
                }
                break;
                case CDDS_ITEMPREPAINT:
                {
                    if (pNMCustomDraw->dwItemSpec == 0)
                        SetTextColor(pNMCustomDraw->hdc, RGB(255, 0, 0));
                    else if (pNMCustomDraw->dwItemSpec == 1)
                        SetTextColor(pNMCustomDraw->hdc, RGB(0, 0, 255));
    
                    HFONT hFont = (HFONT)GetStockObject(SYSTEM_FONT);
                    LOGFONT lf;
                    GetObject(hFont, sizeof(LOGFONT), (PVOID)&lf);
                    lf.lfWeight = FW_BOLD;
                    lf.lfItalic = 1;            
                    if (!hNewFont)
                    {
                        hNewFont = CreateFontIndirect(&lf);
                    }
                    SelectObject(pNMCustomDraw->hdc, hNewFont);
                    return CDRF_NEWFONT;
                }
                break;
                }
                break;
            }
            break;
            }
        }
        break;
        }
        return DefSubclassProc(hWnd, uMsg, wParam, lParam);
    }

    Maybe the font cannot be shared. Did you try creating the font inside the CDDS_ITEMPREPAINT handler?
