Well the best fix I could come up with without ripping apart all the codejock source is to just set
m_arrColor[15] = btn; instead of m_arrColor[15] = RGB(236, 233, 216);

This will make the theme not look exactly the same as it would underXP, but you still get all the cool blue gradiants and yellow/orangehighlights, without the dual-tone disabled combo box and stuff. It willjust use the normal button face color 212,208,200 or 192,192,192.

Ok, well I hadn't used the docking pain until now, but I think it needsits own theme, because its derived from some other class:

class CXTPDockingPaneOffice2003ThemeEx : public CXTPDockingPaneOffice2003Theme
{
public:
    CXTPDockingPaneOffice2003ThemeEx(BOOL bGreyToBlue = TRUE, BOOL bYellowHighlight = FALSE);
    BOOL m_bGreyToBlue, m_bYellowHighlight;
protected:
    virtual void RefreshMetrics();
};

CXTPDockingPaneOffice2003ThemeEx::CXTPDockingPaneOffice2 003ThemeEx(BOOL bGreyToBlue, BOOL bYellowHighlight)
{
    m_bGreyToBlue = bGreyToBlue;
    m_bYellowHighlight = bYellowHighlight;
    RefreshMetrics();
}

void CXTPDockingPaneOffice2003ThemeEx::RefreshMetrics()

        COLORREF btn = pClrMgr->GetColor(COLOR_BTNFACE);
        if( m_bGreyToBlue && (btn == RGB(192, 192, 192) || btn == RGB(212, 208, 200)) ) {

    }
}


    m_paneManager.SetCustomTheme(new CXTPDockingPaneOffice2003ThemeEx());


Its almost the same class, but it works like that.

What I havn't figured out yet is how to getthe status bar color the proper shade of grey (by this I mean it isdrawing as RGB(212, 208, 200) despite me wanting it RGB(236, 233, 216)):


..and how to get the editbox portion of a combo box on my toolbars to also use the proper shadeof grey when disabled, and also its rightclick menu it not themed...

Yeah, you aren't using the custom theme then. Anyplace you use SetThemeyou need to use SetCustomTheme or some other equivalent.  You needto have a "new CXTPOffice2003ThemeEx()" for each place, I think.

I have to use the custom thing twice, and each one needs its own new'dcopy or it blows up later on when they try to self-delete or something:

CXTPPaintManager::SetCustomTheme(new CXTPOffice2003ThemeEx());
GetCommandBars()->SetPaintManager(new CXTPOffice2003ThemeEx());

For my docking panes, I have this:

 GetDockingPaneManager()->SetTheme(xtpPaneThemeOffic e2003);

which is a different method than the overridden theme.  The color arrays and theme members are the same.  Am I using this wrong?

Not sure what you mean by pane colors? The colors are all the exactsame as they would look with the normal Office2003 theme under XP.
Got a screenshot?

That looks pretty good,except for the pane colors.  I guess I need to do something similar for those colors.  I'll try it tomorrow...

See https://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=626&P N=2 --I use hard coded colors to simulate the blue theme that it would looklike under XP for anything less then XP, but only if the user has thedefault grey settings for their OS.

I was testing an app on a W2K box that uses the Office/2003 theme, and the colors are all dull. 

What do most of you do in this situation?  Do you switch to a Office/2000 theme on W2K?  Do you try to emulate themes by hardcoding the colors in the paint manager?  I really don't want to ship something that is that dull...

Thanks!
