    Posted: 20 December 2006 at 2:08am
Hi All,
 
I am trying to apply a MsStyle skin to my sdi application but have not been able to do so.
Also, i have seen the skin framework samples for ITUNES skin and successfully used it but facing problems with MSStyle skinning of application
 
Please note that ITUNES skin is not using any MSStyles files
 
thanx

problem in line
XTPSkinManager()->LoadSkin(m_strStylesPath + _T("mySkin"), _T("mySkin.msstyles"));
 
first parameter must be style path, second ini name.
 
Try run SkinMdiSamples and put this skin to Styles folder. Sample will automatically find skin and show available skins.

I opened TabManager sample,
added
 XTPSkinManager()->LoadSkin("c:\\Source\\ToolkitRoot\\ToolkitPro\\Source\\SkinFramework\\Styles\\Vista.cjstyles");
to skin it,
 
and don't see problem with Left tab position. HotTracking option must be enabled.
 
Try this sample.
 
For TaskPanel check available styles.Think xtpTaskPanelThemeNativeWinXP will look quite good.

Hi Oleg,
I have tried the tab manager sample as you told and skinned it to ITunes skin and set it to WinXp color set but to my surprise when ever i selected the position of TAB to left, the hot tracking was no more visible and on changing it back to top it was working fine. In my code the tab control's hot tracking was set to TRUE. Is there any way to rotate the Tab's text 180 degrees when the tab's are positioned left?
 
 
Also, setting the panel theme like
searchPanel.SetTheme(xtpTaskPanelThemeNativeWinXP );
but it doesnt changes the collapse/expand buttons to the buttons shown in the skin preview in Style Builder and keeps on showing the traditional button with double arrow heads on task panel. Actually, i want to change the task panel expand/collapse buttons images.
 
thankyou

Actually it was problem in oru code. :(  When Tab in left/bottom/right  used TIS_FOCSUED instead TIS_HOT. In most skins focused state  looks same as Hot so we didn't notice it.
 
Thank you. You can fix CXTPTabPaintManager::CColorSetWinXP::DrawRotatedButton method and rebuild library.

Hi Oleg,

Is there any way to make  TabCtrl use TIS_HOT when it is positioned left/bottom or right ? If yes, then tell me precisely that where should i change in library source ?
 
Also, you have not told me the second part of my last post i.e. how can i skin the Task Panel's expand/collapse button. Please see my last post for detail.
 
thankyou

Oleg,

i have successfully fixed the problem to make TabCtrl use TIS_HOT when it is positioned left/bottom or right but not been able to rotate the Tab's text 180 degrees when the tab's are positioned left? Can you specify the code change?
 
 
Also, setting the panel theme like
searchPanel.SetTheme(xtpTaskPanelThemeNativeWinXP );
but it doesnt changes the collapse/expand buttons to the buttons shown in the skin preview in Style Builder and keeps on showing the traditional button with double arrow heads on task panel. Actually, i want to change the task panel expand/collapse buttons images.

GDI can draw text only from top to bottom.
 
Unfortunatelly TaskPanel don't use this images and generate them using caption color.
