Mark a TaskPanel Group as SPECIAL

I tried to mark a taskpanel group special but the colors I specified to special taskpanel groups dont apply to it. The taskpanel has a "xtpTaskPanelThemeToolboxWhidbey" theme. With a "xtpTaskPanelThemeOffice2000" theme it works perfectlly.

spTaskPanelGroup->PutSpecial(VARIANT_TRUE);

has no effect, although I assigned the following properties :

 m_spTaskPanels->GetColorSet()->PutSpecialGroupCaptionDark(0x0000ff);
 m_spTaskPanels->GetColorSet()->SpecialGroupClientBorder = 0x0000ff;
 m_spTaskPanels->GetColorSet()->SpecialGroupClient = 0x0000ff;

I'm using WTL,

Any indication will be greatly appreciated.

TaskPanel.v10.3.1.ocx, same problem with TaskPanel.v10.3.0.ocx

I used your Sample, see by yourself :

1- "xtpTaskPanelThemeToolboxWhidbey" used



2- "xtpTaskPanelThemeToolboxWhidbey" not used



What am I doing wrong ? why the correct color is not applied to the special taskpanel group when the xtpTaskPanelThemeToolboxWhidbey is set to the taskpanel visualtheme ?

I'm using a custom control as a client...I want to use the SpecialGroupCaption and SpecialGroupClientBorder can we have a patch soon ?
