Hello,

i found a few problems with tab skinning. Please see attached VB6 project:

1. If no Tab caption is available, some strange characters are shown.

2. On Form-Unload in the IDE, there must be .LoadSkin "", "" called or the skin stays active even in design mode

3. Back-Color of horizontal slider is false

4. EnableThemeDialogTexture for second picture does not work

5. Backcolor of selected listbox text is not themed (wrong color). Same problem with Combo-Box.


Thank you,
Josef

1. Will be fixed. Thanks

2. You must add SkinFramework object to form like in our SkinControls sample. don't use CreateObject

3. You must move it from Form to picrure box. Select/Delete/Paste

 

Thanks

Hi Oleg,

1. Thank you

2. I've used createobject because of the Msgbox Problem if the object is on the form (or just added to the project). I found this method in your RibbonSample.vbp sample files...

3. You're right, sorry

4+5. Are you looking at that? The problem still exists if skin object is on the form.

6. What about the missing label and image controls when skin is active?


Thank you,
Josef

Hello,

5, 6. I guess it is reason why microsoft don't support themed tabstrip. Image and StaticText are drawn directly on parent picturebox. So there is no way for us to fill it with skin and preserve text/image.

You can comment '.EnableThemeDialogTexture Me.Picture2.hWnd, 6

and change BackColor property of picturebox to match theme.

I have the same problem with the label control.

Is it possible, that you create a new label control which can display on a tabstrip control?
