Hello Piotr,

Visual Studio 2026 official support will be added in the upcoming version. The currently available v24.3 does not provide an official support for it.

Regards,

Thanks for reporting this mistake. Indeed, the return value must be -1. I'll be fixed in the upcoming version.

We are using an CXTPTaskDialog in our application.

I'm using incorrect settings and the dialog fails to create.
In this case the application ends up in an infinite loop.

The culprit seems to be the handling of the error case in 

int CXTPTaskDialogFrame::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
{
  ...
  	if (!CreateClient(TRUE))	{		TRACE0("Failed to create Task Dialog UI window.\n");		return FALSE;	}
}

The return FALSE seems to be incorrect (the method returns 0 as success).

If I patch the code with a return -1 when CreateClient() fails, the infinite loop no longer happens.

After latest toolset change in VS2026 I get this error on all XTP projects:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\18\Community\MSBuild\Microsoft\VC\v180\Microsoft.CppBuild.targets(473,5): error MSB8020: The build tools for v145 (Platform Toolset = 'v145') cannot be found. To build using the v145 build tools, please install v145 build tools.  Alternatively, you may upgrade to the current Visual Studio tools by selecting the Project menu or right-click the solution, and then selecting "Retarget solution".
Retarget did not work, I needed to manually change the files, but it is a pain, as none of the samples compile.

I'm doing that through the styles ini file in section

E.g.
XTPPaintManager()->SetTheme(xtpThemeOffice2016);XTPResourceImages()->SetHandle(sThemePath, _T("Office2016PowerPointDarkGray.ini"));


[DockingPane.Active]BorderColor = 0 87 78BackgroundColor = 178 178 178TextColor = 255 255 255CaptionColor = 0 87 78GripperColor = 0 166 159

Hello,

Can you please tell me how to change the color of docking pane's caption. I want to change the blue color to something else.

I tried PaneManager->GetPaintManager()->m_clrActiveCaption. But the color remains blue.

Gautam Jain

Posted: 27 April 2026 at 5:44am

Hi everyone, I'm experiencing a serious performance issue on a specific computer architecture (Ryzen 9 5950X (16 cores, 32 threads), 64GB RAM, NVIDIA RTX 3080). On this system (and I haven't found any other architectures causing the same issue yet), a file operation that works fine without CJ Skin cannot be completed using Toolkit Pro 24.2.0 because the thread stalls while updating the progress bar. This operation takes increasingly longer until the thread completely stalls.

Note: This machine is owned by a customer, and I don't have any further information or extensive testing.

Has anyone had similar experiences? Do you have any suggestions on how to find a solution?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Well, I have been using XTP for almost 20 years.

Since most other apps, websites, mobile apps and Windows OS have moved to modern simple fluid design (or similar) my app using XTP looks outdated and many customers complain about it.

Want your suggestions, how can I use XTP and at the same time make it look modern?

Visual Studio 2026 support with the latest C++ standard option have been added to a new Toolkit Pro v26 major update that is about to be released.

Another vote from me!

We're trying to move to VS 2026 using latest supported v145 C++ build tools and still waiting for Codejock. All other SDKs we use support VS 2026.

Even a hack for 24.3 would be appreciated rather than waiting for a mega update.
