Is there a sample that explains how to create custom themes like the MS Money theme shown at the following links in VB6?

The MS Money theme cannot be created using the ActiveX version of the controls.  You can switch between the various built-in themes and change the color scheme, but you cannot create a new theme that isn't based on one of the original, built-in themes.

Although the MS Money theme is not built into the ActiveX control, you can (or used to be able to) modify the themes using setspecialcolor.

Using the code in hoanganh's post (http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=403#3522) I was able to create the office2003 theme on windows 2000 workstations. Since the introduction of the CommandBarsGlobalSettings.ColorManager.SystemTheme methods in 9.6, I have not tried it modifying the themes but I would think it still works.

I would imagine if you experiment with the colors you could recreate the MS Money look to some degree. Let us know how you get on

UPDATE:

Version 9.6 has increased the ability to create custom themed toolbars (or indeed custom themes for just about all CodeJock controls). For more details look up the SetColors method in the Help.

To begin to illustrate a MS Money implementation, here is some code to get you started. It would be great if you could post your progress...


Private Sub Form_Load()
    CommandBars.LoadDesignerBars "C:\Program Files\Codejock Software\ActiveX\Xtreme Suite Pro ActiveX v9.60\samples\CommandBars\Customizable\visio.xcb"
    Call XCBThemeMSMoney
End Sub
Private Sub XCBThemeMSMoney()
With CommandBars
    .VisualTheme = xtpThemeOffice2003
    With .GlobalSettings.ColorManager
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_TOOLBAR_TEXT, 16777215
        .SetColor STDCOLOR_BTNFACE, 11567972
        .SetColor STDCOLOR_BTNFACE, 11567972
        .SetColor STDCOLOR_HIGHLIGHTTEXT, 8380415
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_TOOLBAR_FACE, 11567972
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_TOOLBAR_TEXT, 16777215
        .SetColor STDCOLOR_BTNFACE, 5921626
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_HIGHLIGHT, 5263440
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_HIGHLIGHT_BORDER, 5263440
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_HIGHLIGHT_CHECKED, 5263440
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_HIGHLIGHT_CHECKED_BORDER, 5263440
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_HIGHLIGHT_PUSHED, 5263440
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_HIGHLIGHT_PUSHED_BORDER, 5263440
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_HIGHLIGHT_TEXT, 8380415
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_MENUBAR_FACE, 5921626
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_MENUBAR_TEXT, 16777215
        .SetColor XPCOLOR_MENUBAR_BORDER, 4408131
        .SetColor COLOR_BTNSHADOW, RGB(214, 214, 214)
    End With
    .Options.LunaColors = False
    .Options.ShowTextBelowIcons = True
    .RecalcLayout
End With


End Sub

Yeah... thanks for the sample.  I'll try it out.

The goal is to give my users the ability to change the look and feel of the program.  It would be nice if they could specify an image for the background of the commandbar.  Either a static image or a tiled image.

I'm not sure that tiled images are possible, which is going to make replicating the toolbar element of the MS Money Theme difficult (or impossible), so I would submit a feature request.

Also, I had a look in the samples again and there is a good demo of the customization options in the CommandBars MDISample, take a look.

Those examples are most likely based on the C++ MFC source code.  The ActiveX version does not have all the functionality that the MFC code does (yet?). If you take a look at the development history of the Xtreme Suite controls you will se that each new update brings a lot more functionality.

Hopefully we will se a lot of improvements when version 10 is released (can't wait :)

Yes...  I hope to see more functionality in the ActiveX controls as well.

If anyone has any other ideas on how to Custom Theme the commandbar and dockingpanes let us know!  :)
