Hello,

See please CCustomizePageGeneral class in RibbonSample. I think, this class contains same functional what you need. You can to use XAML for controls with black themes in CXTPPropertyPage.

[SOLVED]PropertySheet theme issue : Okay I've spent several hours...

Okay I've spent several hours digging through the maze of cj code and managed to figure out the issue.

The CXTPPropertySheet::SetTheme() call after the call to SetNavigator() causes CXTPCommandBars::EnableFrameTheme(TRUE) to be executed later in the call stack.

The colors for the frame are in fact properly read from the INI dll via a call to

CXTPFrameThemeOffice2013::RefreshMetrics()

However, those colors are then wiped out with calls to XTPGetAccentColor() in CXTPFrameThemeNativeWindows10::RefreshMetrics().

Anyway my fix is to replace that function with the following:

void CXTPFrameThemeNativeWindows10::RefreshMetrics()
{
	CXTPFrameThemeOffice2013::RefreshMetrics();

	m_clrShadowColorActive   = XTPIniColor(_T("CommandBars.Frame"), _T("ActiveShadowColor"),
										   RGB(0, 122, 204));
	m_clrShadowColorInactive = XTPIniColor(_T("CommandBars.Frame"), _T("InactiveShadowColor"),
										   RGB(48, 48, 48));

#if(0) // what is this fluff?
	// frame back color
	m_clrFrameBorderActive.SetStandardValue(XTPGetAccentColor(xtpPaintManagerAccentColor));
	m_clrFrameCaptionActive.SetStandardValue(XTPGetAccentColor(xtpPaintManagerAccentColor));

	// frame caption text
	m_clrFrameCaptionTextActive.SetStandardValue(
		XTPGetAccentColor(xtpPaintManagerNormalTextAccentColor));
	m_clrFrameCaptionTextActiveBSMode.SetStandardValue(
		XTPGetAccentColor(xtpPaintManagerNormalTextAccentColor));

	// minimize/maximize/restore button text
	m_csFrameCaptionButtonActive.m_clrBackground.SetStandardValue(
		XTPGetAccentColor(xtpPaintManagerAccentColor));
	m_csFrameCaptionButtonActive.m_clrFill.SetStandardValue(
		XTPGetAccentColor(xtpPaintManagerNormalTextAccentColor));

	// close button text
	m_csFrameCloseButtonActive.m_clrBackground.SetStandardValue(
		XTPGetAccentColor(xtpPaintManagerAccentColor));
	m_csFrameCloseButtonActive.m_clrFill.SetStandardValue(
		XTPGetAccentColor(xtpPaintManagerNormalTextAccentColor));
#endif
}

[SOLVED]PropertySheet theme issue : I've modified the Samples\Controls\PropertySheet...

I've modified the Samples\Controls\PropertySheet sample that comes with Toolkit Pro 20.0 to test the effect of the Windows 10 dark theme on it.

If the CXTPPropertySheet::SetTheme function is called BEFORE the CXTPPropertySheet::SetNavigator call, then I get this look:

If the CXTPPropertySheet::SetTheme function is called AFTER the CXTPPropertySheet::SetNavigator call, then I get this look:

Where's the title bar?

To achieve this effect, I only modified CPropertySheetApp::InitInstance() and CPropertySheetDlg::OnButtonList().

My changes are BOLDED

BOOL CPropertySheetApp::InitInstance()
{
	AfxEnableControlContainer();

	// Standard initialization
	// If you are not using these features and wish to reduce the size
	//  of your final executable, you should remove from the following
	//  the specific initialization routines you do not need.

#if _MSC_VER <= 1200 // MFC 6.0 or earlier
#	ifdef _AFXDLL
	Enable3dControls(); // Call this when using MFC in a shared DLL
#	else
	Enable3dControlsStatic(); // Call this when linking to MFC statically
#	endif
#endif // MFC 6.0 or earlier

	XTPThemeDLL()->SetHandle(xtpIniWindows10Dark);
	XTPPaintManager()->SetTheme(XTPPaintTheme::xtpThemeNativeWindows10);
	
	CPropertySheetDlg dlg;
	m_pMainWnd	= &dlg;
	int nResponse = (int)dlg.DoModal();
	if (nResponse == IDOK)
	{
		// TODO: Place code here to handle when the dialog is
		//  dismissed with OK
	}
	else if (nResponse == IDCANCEL)
	{
		// TODO: Place code here to handle when the dialog is
		//  dismissed with Cancel
	}

	// Since the dialog has been closed, return FALSE so that we exit the
	//  application, rather than start the application's message pump.
	return FALSE;
}

void CPropertySheetDlg::OnButtonList()
{
	CXTPPropertySheet ps(_T("CXTPPropertyPageListNavigator Sample"));

	// The pages do not receive the theme if I call this here.
	// ps.SetTheme(xtpControlThemeNativeWindows10);


	CXTPPropertyPageListNavigator* pList = new CXTPPropertyPageListNavigator();
	pList->SetListStyle(xtpListBoxNativeWindows10);

	ps.SetNavigator(pList);

	// The pages receive the theme, but the titlebar goes blank.
	ps.SetTheme(xtpControlThemeNativeWindows10);

	CTabListPage pageProperties;
	CTabSamplePage pageSample;
	CTabResizablePage pageSize;

	ps.AddPage(&pageProperties);
	ps.AddPage(&pageSample);
	ps.AddPage(&pageSize);

	ps.SetResizable();

	ps.DoModal();
}

If you switch to the theme to xtpIniWindows10Light, its the same bad titlebar effect:

Am I doing something wrong?
