Seems like one of those strays in every day. Good that you gave him the scarecrow, otherwise I would have been tmpted to come with a dumb question and a mile long hex dump as well.

Absolutely correct! It doesn't.

I am no designer and therefore i have no clue how to design a fine UI. Thank good i could use the DevComponents kit which has a lot of nice UI objects. But sometimes i come across requests where i really have no clue how to handle that. For example i shall display a Flow (similar to a projectflow view but without them Grid lines) and i have no idea how to set up such things. Building a "normal" UI consiting of grids and buttons and stuff seems way easier 
Drawing on paper how it should look like aint the problem but how the hell do you guys code such things? When i see nice charts in software i often wonder how that has been done... Have you guys a clue?

Because I am a little bit proficient in WPF, I have no real problems because a well designed WPF control is lookless so it's easy for me to skin it however I like. I learned Blend when it first came out and spent so much time tearing the various WPF templates apart that it's easy enough for me to cope with redesigning and retemplating controls.

Sounds like i may need time i don't have 
So WPF would be the way to handle such issues?

Well, I'm biased because I have spent so much time in WPF now that I'm very comfortable with it. It's difficult to get started with though - there's a lot going on in there if you aren't used to declarative programming.

Well i guess at some point i gotta give it a try, you know any articles here or elsewhere that might be good to start of with?

If you have an ASP.NET background, I wrote this article years ago that might help get you started. Understanding WPF via ASP.NET[^]
Josh Smith, Sacha Barber and Karl Shifflett have all written excellent introduction to WPF articles here on CP. I would suggest going through those as well.

Practice some MVVM UI with WPF/Xaml and/or Html/Vuejs, have a pet project!
In no time it will come naturally to you, just like Pete O'Hanlon, despite him being just "a little bit" proficient! 
(some might say a big bit, but hey, I just reused his own words!  )

I draw them directly on hDC - No wpf here and no time to get knowledge, plus it is very easy to do on every possible system once the basis has been set.

hDC are the device context on Windows, basically you call GDI functions (or GDI+ classes for those who use MFC, we can't for reasons) to paint directly on a control or form surface.

Be wary that it is an old method, I don't know for how long it will be supported and it can be tricky, especially getting the User Interactions right.
I plainly stated "how do I do that", not "how it should be done"

Wrote all of my Win Forms custom controls myself. This way I can adjust and extend them as I please. It requires a lot of knowledge but your software really stands out. Because on many occasions a well drawn never-before-used custom control does a better job then a combination of standard controls.
Examples of my controls include: vertical tree of controls for editing small hierarchies, chronology of versions, sets control, very special input box(es), diff/reconciliation controls, etc.
I do not follow a typical control framework strategy and do not add gazillion of features to each control. I start with minimal extensions to fulfill the requirements (if starting from existing control). Then I refactor when new features are needed. Today the controls are rich and mature.
