Hello,

You can only use standard colors from Office - 
pRibbonBar->SetContextColor 
and

xtpRibbonTabContextColorNone,           // Default color
xtpRibbonTabContextColorBlue,           // Blue context color
xtpRibbonTabContextColorYellow,         // Yellow context color
xtpRibbonTabContextColorGreen,          // Green context color
xtpRibbonTabContextColorRed,            // Red context color
xtpRibbonTabContextColorPurple,         // Purple context color
xtpRibbonTabContextColorCyan,           // Cyan context color
xtpRibbonTabContextColorOrange          // Orange context color

is this a known issue or am i doing anything wrong?

all i do is

COLORREF col = RGB(255,0,0);
pRibbonTab->SetColor(col);

but nothing happens.
i also called GetColor() before and after setting the color. when it is called the first time GetColor() returns 0x000000ff after setting it and something else before (some gray value). after the first call it returns 0x000000ff before setting the new color again, just as expected. i also called RedrawControl() but that doesn't change a thing.

using v13.4 of XTP.

hope anyone can help.
