// pRibbonBar->EnableFrameTheme();

That solves it, but then I get no "nice frame" :(. This frame looks ok in the Ribbon Sample. I'll take a look and see what else needs to be called to get the frame paint itself correctly.]]> Sun, 06 Aug 2006 06:06:20 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4744&PID=14720&title=mdiapp-with-ribbon-cannot-be-maximized#14720 <![CDATA[MDI-app with ribbon cannot be maximized! : When I add a simple ribbon to...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4744&PID=14717&title=mdiapp-with-ribbon-cannot-be-maximized#14717 Author: znakeeye

When I add a simple ribbon to my MDI-application, the right border is not painted when maximized. The same is true for the bottom border. See attached pictures. Worth mentioning is that I can click in this "unpainted" area - like the desktop. Thus, the window is not trully maximized!

If I remove my call to CreateRibbonBar(), the borders are painted correctly.
What can be wrong?
 
// Before call to CreateRibbonBar():
pCommandBars->SetTheme(xtpThemeRibbon);

BOOL CMainFrame::CreateRibbonBar()
{
    CXTPCommandBars* pCommandBars = GetCommandBars();

    CMenu menu;
    menu.Attach(::GetMenu(m_hWnd));
    SetMenu(NULL);

    CXTPRibbonBar* pRibbonBar = (CXTPRibbonBar*)pCommandBars->Add(_T("The Ribbon"), xtpBarTop, RUNTIME_CLASS(CXTPRibbonBar));
    if (!pRibbonBar)
    {
        return FALSE;
    }
    pRibbonBar->EnableDocking(0);
    //pRibbonBar->GetTabPaintManager()->m_bSelectOnButtonDown = FALSE;

    CXTPControlPopup* pControlFile = (CXTPControlPopup*)pRibbonBar->AddSystemButton(ID_MENU_FILE);
    pControlFile->SetCommandBar(menu.GetSubMenu(0));

    pControlFile->SetIconId(IDB_GEAR);
    UINT uCommand = {IDB_GEAR};
    pCommandBars->GetImageManager()->SetIcons(IDB_GEAR, &uCommand, 1, xtpImageNormal);

    pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_SAVE);
    pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_EDIT_UNDO);
    pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_PRINT);
    pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->CreateOriginalControls();


    pRibbonBar->SetCloseable(FALSE);

    pRibbonBar->EnableFrameTheme();

    return TRUE;
}
