Posted: 13 March 2026 at 2:27pm

One of our most frequently occurring customer crashes has these three CJ apis on the top of the stack with the crash in AlphaBlendU:


>    ToolkitPro2200vc170x64U.dll!CXTPCommandBarAnimation::AlphaBlendU(unsigned char * pDest, unsigned char * pSrcBack, int cx, int cy, unsigned char * pSrc, unsigned char byAlpha) Line 109    C++
     ToolkitPro2200vc170x64U.dll!CXTPCommandBarAnimation::AnimateRect(CClientDC & dc, CXTPCommandBarAnimation::CAnimateInfo * pai) Line 151    C++
     ToolkitPro2200vc170x64U.dll!CXTPCommandBarAnimation::OnAnimate() Line 176    C++


We currently ship the product with V24.2 but V22 is in the customer base. Any chance that is/was part of some crash? The code runs all the time as I move over the ribbon bar so it is difficult to believe there is an issue in CJ itself. But, I ask because I have seen a "crash" fix in the readme file under commandbars but with no details.

Hi Artem,

I wish I knew a way to reproduce the issue. It was random from what I can tell (I just got dump files). We do use skinning and I have been closing the app when we got a deadlock situation as all threads were waiting on objects. I have waited to see if the app would "wake up" and finish but when it is locked that hasn't happened and I just kill it (stop the debugger). I have no ideal if the two are related.

I added the pointer checks too so time will tell if this pops up elsewhere.

Hello,

I've added nullptr check. 
How I can to reproduce your problem?

During shutdown we have experienced crashes in CXTPCommandBarsFrameHook code. The call to GetFramePaintManager has returned a null pointer. In particular, as we shut down the hook's RedrawFrame has been called and the GetFramePaintManager()->DrawFrame line crashed due to the null pointer.

I see that CXTPCommandBarsFrameHook::GetFramePaintManager() can return NULL as can the call to pPaintManager->GetFramePaintManager if it is called.

I also see that many of the calls to GetFramePaintManager in XTPFrameHook.cpp test the returned pointer. Only a few do not and I'm modifying those to do so.

Would be great if a CJ update did the same so I don't have to maintain this change.

Not sure how we get into this as it isn't happening a lot. We do use skinning depending on a user setting for a color theme choice but I run with the skin a lot and haven't crashed. So this change I'm making is a hope so. As in I hope it avoids the crash.

Hello,

We are integrating custom SVG icons into our application using Codejock (Xtreme ToolkitPro 24.2) and are encountering an issue:
SVG files that rely on CSS styling (e.g., classes, <style>, and modern SVG structure) are rendered completely black inside Codejock controls. In contrast, the SVGs used in Codejock’s sample projects(Codejock\Xtreme_ToolkitPro\v24.2.0\Samples\Common\svg) render correctly with their intended colors.

Key difference Observed :
Codejock’s SVG uses inline fill attributes and simple path-only SVG 1.1, while our SVG uses CSS styles, classes, <style>, and modern SVG structure. 

I am attaching our SVG files for reference : uploads/9737/Svgs_Rendered_As_Black.zip 

We would appreciate any guidance or help on how to resolve this issue.

Thank you.

Subject: Assertion Occurs When Using SVG Icon with CXTPCont
Posted: 17 November 2025 at 8:04pm

I added a “change font color” button to a CXTPToolBar. The code is as follows:

int PEBookmarkCtrl::OnCreateControl(LPCREATECONTROLSTRUCT lpCreateControl){    switch(lpCreateControl->nID)    {    case ID_BKCTRL_COLOR:        CXTPControlPopupColor* pPopupColor = new CXTPControlPopupColor();        CXTPPopupBar* pColorBar = (CXTPPopupBar*)CXTPPopupToolBar::CreateObject();        pColorBar->GetControls()->Add(new CXTPControlButtonColor(), ID_BKCTRL_COLOR_NONE);        pColorBar->GetControls()->Add(new CXTPControlColorSelector(), ID_BKCTRL_COLORSELECTOR);        pColorBar->GetControls()->Add(new CXTPControlButtonColor(), ID_BKCTRL_COLOR_MORE);        pPopupColor->SetCommandBar(pColorBar);        pColorBar->EnableCustomization(FALSE);        pColorBar->InternalRelease();        lpCreateControl->pControl = pPopupColor;        return TRUE;    }    return FALSE;}

After changing the icon to an SVG, an assertion started occurring.
It happens when CXTPControlPopupColor::SetColor() is called in the ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI handler (see attached).
What should I do to fix this?

Hi,

I activated the Frame Theme using m_pRibbonBar->EnableFrameTheme(TRUE), but now my app icon is hidden.

How can I bring it back?

Hi,

Is it possible to remove the section of the ribbon that displays the group names?

Hi dbrookes,

I would have posted this sooner but our IT guys blocked this website due to a certificate issue (out of date if I recall):

Yes I do use DwmSetWindowAttribute as our UI team asked why we don't have rounded corners like the other apps on Win11. I was looking at the Windows "snap" work around I had put in place and also the shadow thinking it was one of those. Then when I duplicated the problem but could not with my floating MDI windows which I implemented (not using CJ tear offs) I posted and moved on. I figured CJ would fix the issue.

In any case I just skipped the call to DwmSetWindowAttribute and as you indicated, the bleeding onto adjacent monitors doesn't occur. I'll go into our sizing code which I already have handlers for and add and remove the attribute as necessary. And, I have a "super maximize" mode where I "maximize" our app across multiple monitors and I already saw the rounded corner when I go super max which I don't really like. I am not really using SC_MAXIMIZE when I do that because Windows will immediately maximize the app on one of my monitors. So when I'm in that mode I'll remove the attribute too.

Oh, and I don't know if you noticed but a Windows update fixed a "quirk" where enum monitors sends info on the primary monitor with the sizes not DPI scaled when running using system aware DPI context. Workarounds for that "quirk" now fail. My gitHub copilot informed me which versions have the quirk and which don't.

I owe you big time!]]> Mon, 22 Sep 2025 09:31:06 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24595&PID=79284&title=maximizeapp-frame-bleeds-encroaches-second-monitor#79284
