For us it means changing 30 programs instead of just the 1 to add the new theme file, like for all the previous new themes but I suppose if you're limited by how it works then it doesn't matter. 2013 and VS 2012 themes don't work for us anyway so we're not using them. Thanks for the reply though.]]> Wed, 09 Jul 2014 04:12:02 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=21821&PID=72628&title=visualthemee-problem-with-office2013-dll#72628 <![CDATA[VisualThemee Problem with Office2013.dll : Unfortunately it is impossible...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=21821&PID=72443&title=visualthemee-problem-with-office2013-dll#72443 Author: astoyan

Unfortunately it is impossible to make Office2013 theme work with xtpReportThemeResource  because those themes are implemented in completely different way. While Office2007/2010 are pure resource-only themes, meaning all size, color and image data are located in a specified resource and a general Resource theme renders it in a uniform way, Office2013 has its own rendering code, which is impossible to substitute by a resource theme.
We agree, it is an issue, but it is an issue of theme naming, not implementation. It would not cause any confusion if there were xtpReportThemeOffice2007 and xtpReportThemeOffice2010 from the very beginning with internal resource theme loading mechanism, but now making such changes won't affect the existing problem.
So, it's just a peculiarity that you have to take into account when switch themes. In the meantime we'll try to figure out how to prevent this issue in future.

Thank you.

This seems like a step backwards. So now we have to change all the code for each object and set 'VisualTheme' to different values depending on whether a user selects the 2013 style or not. Please make Office2013.dll work with the 'Resource' setting.

Yes, I saw that. But only for Office2013. For all other themes 'Resource' is OK!]]> Mon, 29 Jul 2013 10:17:29 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=21821&PID=71462&title=visualthemee-problem-with-office2013-dll#71462 <![CDATA[VisualThemee Problem with Office2013.dll : You have to set to 2013 theme:...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=21821&PID=71460&title=visualthemee-problem-with-office2013-dll#71460 Author: SuperMario

You have to set to 2013 theme:

    ReportControlGlobalSettings.ResourceImages.LoadFromFile App.Path & "\..\..\..\Styles\Office2013.dll", "Office2013White.ini"
    wndReportControl.VisualTheme = xtpReportThemeOffice2013

If I use Reportcontrol1.VisualTheme=xtpReportThemeResource in conjunction with the Office2013.dll the header part is all black:
 
 
I has to set the theme to Office2013:
 
 
If I use other dlls, like Office2010 xtpReportThemeResource works as expected:
 
 
Is this a bug or a feature???
 
Thanks for looking at it
