Oh, my mistake I should of cause use xtpGridThemeResource.

What about Tree View controls?

Setting SetTheme(xtpControlThemeResource) on a CXTPTreeCtrl

does not seem to make is Office2010Black?

Ok, I found out that on the command bar I can call:

m_myDockingPanes.SetTheme(xtpPaneThemeResource);

Which I expect uses the stuff from the Office2010Black resource?

But, there is no such resource theme for the property editor

m_myPropertyEditor.SetTheme(xtpPaneThemeResource); <- not working

Is there an example on how to use Styles and Themes together?

If e.g. I selected a style like this:

XTPResourceImages()->SetHandle(_T("Office2010.dll"),_T("Office2010Black.ini"));

I expect that my ribbon, command bars, property editor, controls etc become is a black look.

It seems to work for the ribbon when calling

XTPPaintManager()->SetTheme(xtpThemeRibbon);

However for the docking panes and for the property editor I have to call

m_myDockingPanes.SetTheme(xtpPaneThemeOffice2007Word);

m_myPropertyEditor.SetTheme(xtpPaneThemeOffice2007Word);

Or what?

How do I match the Styles with the Themes?

How do I get my app to look consistent?

And even more strange, how do I control the tool tips on my controls?
