The drawing routines are in gdi32.dll. But this could also easily be
caused by some fault in window updating, calculation what window parts
are visible, which is in user32.dll. It does not matter, both can not be
used natively. I guess what you call 'simple widget' translates to
controls. The basic types of these (available since win3.0) are edit
control, scroll, button, bitmap, icon, list box and some more. These are
also in user32.dll

Comctl32.dll contains the newer and more complicated controls like
listview, treeview, toolbar. This one can be used natively.

The richedit controls (riched*.dll) can be used natively. There are some
more, you can see what your application uses with WINEDEBUG=+loaddll

Not enough clue to be useful I'm afraid. There are known problems in
this area, but it will take a while before they are all fixed.
