Hi

I am using CXTPTaskPanel and I want to increase the caption height of each group and I want make the caption to be center aligned.

Please advice.

Thanks

We derive a custom theme from CXTPTaskPanelExplorerThemePlain. The task panel samples contain a custom theme (I believe that is where we started ours from).

Override DrawGroupCaption. The routine gets in a flag that indicates the caption is being drawn or just measured. You can return the height you want when called to measure. When called to draw, you can draw the text however you like. The CDC is passed in and make sure you use DT_CENTER instead of DT_LEFT. We have calls to DrawText in both the measure and display sections of the method. We use DT_LEFT in both cases and I assume you would want to use DT_CENTER in both cases.
