I tried to add the new Win 10 theme to my app. When I select it, I get a crash in CXTPStatusBarThemeResource::FillStatusBar on this:

// Fill light background.

CXTPResourceImage* pLightImage = XTPResourceImages()->LoadFile(_T("STATUSBARLIGHT"));

ASSERT(NULL != pLightImage);

The Win 10 ini files do not have "statusbarlight" or "statusbardark" - should they? Or is the status bar drawn differently somehow for the Win 10 theme?

My guess would be your status bar isn't using the correct paint manager theme. It looks like the status bar gets that from the command bars paint manager if command bars are set.

Try call m_wndStatusBar.SetCommandBars(pCommandBars) after you create it. Then the status bar should use the native Windows 10 theme once the command bars theme changes.

I think :)

Regards,

Daniel.

I am calling m_wndStatusBar.SetCommandBars -- the status bar gets the correct theme for everything except Win 10 (which asserts because the images are missing from the win10 dll).
