I have problem connecting with skinning dialog in MDI application.

In order to explain it, I modified the CodeJock RibbonMDISample:

- added to project Dialog1 (style popup) and Dialog2 (style child).

- added members do class CMainFrame: std::unique_ptr dlg1; std::unique_ptr dlg2;

- modified function void CMainFrame::OnViewFullscreen()

void CMainFrame::OnViewFullscreen()

{

dlg1 = std::make_unique();

if (dlg1->Create(IDD_DIALOG1, &m_wndClient))

{

dlg1->ShowWindow(SW_NORMAL);

}

dlg2 = std::make_unique();

if (dlg2->Create(IDD_DIALOG2, &m_wndClient))

{

dlg2->ShowWindow(SW_NORMAL);

}

After calling this function there will show 2 dialogs one (child) without skin and second (popup) skined.

We called function XTPSkinManager()->LoadSkin() and dialogs were skinned

but after closing dialogs and opening them again they weren't skinned. uploads/9273/RibbonMDISample.zip" rel="nofollow - uploads/9273/RibbonMDISample.zip

Hello,

Yes, you can apply the same theme to your dialogs, it's not skinning though, it's just re-using CommandBars theme.

All you need is to derive your dialog class from CXTPDialog and enable frame theme as shown below:

BOOL CTestDialog::OnInitDialog()

{

CXTPDialog::OnInitDialog();

if(InitCommandBars())

{

ASSERT(NULL != GetCommandBars());

GetCommandBars()->EnableFrameTheme(TRUE);

}

...

}

I hope it will be helpful.

Thank you.
