    Posted: 23 February 2016 at 4:52am
When I use the Office 2013 theme the background color gets set to light grey for the large right backstage area and the command area on the left has a dark blue background.

But label controls on the right side get a white background (tried transparent style, didn't help).

If the label height is higher than the text height, the bottom background of the label area is dark blue.

This is a regression compared to 16.3 and 17.0



I tried SetTheme on the labels, but looking at the impl that does nothing.

The backstage theme was set by calling SetTheme on the CXTPRibbonBackstageView.

Any workarounds?

One more note: making the window smaller and larger again leaves the dark blue areas of the labels black. So redraw makes it even worse.

Hello SvenC,

What version of ToolKitPro do you use to get this issues ?

Did you try to use last v17.1?  It has fixed backstage for themes office2013 and VS2015.

Regards,
 Oleksandr Lebed

There are some changes in setting theme for backstage and its elements.
You can use RibbonSample as example.

See next methods:
void CMainFrame::SetBackstageTheme()
{
	XTPPaintTheme	nPaintTheme = GetCommandBars()->GetPaintManager()->GetCurrentTheme();
	XTPControlTheme nTheme = xtpControlThemeResource;
	switch (nPaintTheme)
	{
	case xtpThemeOffice2013:		nTheme = xtpControlThemeOffice2013; break;
	case xtpThemeVisualStudio2015:	nTheme = xtpControlThemeVisualStudio2015; break;
	default:						nTheme = xtpControlThemeResource;
	}
	
	CXTPRibbonBar *pRibbonBar = (CXTPRibbonBar*)GetCommandBars()->GetMenuBar();
	CXTPRibbonBackstageView *pView = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPRibbonBackstageView, pRibbonBar->GetSystemButton()->GetCommandBar());

	if (pView)
		pView->SetTheme(nPaintTheme);

	if (m_pageInfo.GetSafeHwnd())
	{
		m_pageInfo.SetTheme(nTheme);
...


CMainFrame::OnOptionsStyleOffice2013, CBackstagePageInfo::SetTheme

That got me into the right direction: I overwrote CXTPRibbonBackstagePage::SetTheme and missed to call the base implementation. After adding this line in my override all is well again:

  CXTPRibbonBackstagePage::SetTheme(nTheme);

Thumbs Up
