Is there any way to prevent the docking manager when using the Office 2003 theme, of colorising with different color each time the MDI tab buttons ? Even better, is there any way of having Office 2003 docking style with XP style of MDI buttons ? Pppllleeeeaaasssseee... Or, how can we control the colors programmatically in the ActiveX version... ?? Using API perhaps ? (Need pointing to a direction) |

Yes, this is possible. Take a look at the TabManager sample. You can just disable OneNote colors to make it stop using a different color for each tab. You must set AutoTheme to False if you are not changing these settings at runtime. CommandBars.TabWorkspace.AutoTheme = False CommandBars.TabWorkspace.PaintManager.OneNoteColors = False Add this if you want to change the appearnce of the tabs, you can change the properties to whatever style you like. CommandBars.TabWorkspace.PaintManager.Appearance = xtpTabAppearancePropertyPage CommandBars.TabWorkspace.PaintManager.Color = xtpTabColorOffice2003 You can mix and match appearances and themes, so you can have Office 2003 dockning pane tabs and XP style MDI buttons. Add this to change the docking pane buttons to the style you wish. DockingPaneManager.PanelPaintManager.xtpTabAppearancePropert yPage Hope this helps  |
