That's really cool! Thank you much Smile 
I used your information to subclass my own ColorSet as it follows: 

class CWhiteHeaderColorSet : public CXTPTabColorSetNativeWindows11
{
public:
	void FillHeader(CDC* pDC, CRect rc, CXTPTabManager* pTabManager) override
	{
		pDC->FillSolidRect(rc, RGB(255, 255, 255));
	}

};

and then 

m_pTabCtrl.GetPaintManager()->SetColorSet(new CWhiteHeaderColorSet());

The result is exactly what I wanted.

Just to follow up.  Here's my FillHeader modified to set the background to a "debug" color:


And here's the simple code to do this:

Hello Milano,

It is possible to use SVG icons for toolbars and ribbon bars, as well as in a number of other controls. This is demonstrated in various samples. For example, check out VB6 CommandBarIcons sample (C:\Program Files (x86)\Codejock Software\ActiveX\Xtreme SuitePro ActiveX v24.3.0\Samples\CommandBars\VB\CommandBarIcons). Looks for LoadVectorIcon calls in the sample source code to find the SVG related implementation.

Regards,

Here's a visual of that Office2016 tab.

My solution to Toolkit protected code was to realize I didn't need anyone's permission to modify that code directly.

I modify their code as I need and rebuild the DLL or static lib. I track my changes so that I can reapply them as new Toolkit versions come out.

For example, 
CXTPTabBase::SetTheme
 does not have support for xtpControlThemeOffice2016. So I rolled my own 
class _XTP_EXT_CLASS CXTPTabBaseThemeOffice2016 : public CXTPTabBaseTheme
 and put in right in XTPTabBaseTheme and then updated the Toolkit to support that tab theme.

Hello, 

thank you so much for your help. Anyways, the mentioned ::FillHeader() function is protected and can't be invoked by user code. 

And, yes, I'm using v24.3.0 of Toolkit Pro.

Any further help is highly appreciated!
Best regards,
K.

How on earth did you manage to break the forum formatting?  Your post is strangely bunched up to the one side of the page. The code is not readable.]]> Wed, 18 Mar 2026 16:12:38 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24622&PID=79369&title=set-theme-for-dynamically-created-controls#79369 <![CDATA[Toolkit Pro : Background of CXTPTabCtrl modification needed ...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24619&PID=79368&title=background-of-cxtptabctrl-modification-needed#79368 Author: xsensordev

I'm going to assume a somewhat recent version of the Toolkit, and I'm guessing you're using the base theme for that control.

Try setting a breakpoint in CXTPTabBaseTheme::FillHeader or any of the other FillHeader functions to see what's happening.

By the way, that strip you want to fill is not distinguished from the tabs.  You'd have to modify the FillHeader function (for whichever theme is being applied) to perform your own painting of the strip.]]> Wed, 18 Mar 2026 16:08:46 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24619&PID=79368&title=background-of-cxtptabctrl-modification-needed#79368
