How to Render Using CXTPPaintManager

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

I am creating a new control from scratch (similar to the Outlook pager). I would like to use the CXTPPaintManager to render certain parts of my control but I can't find any examples for how to go about doing this.

What is the correct way to get an instance of CXTPPaintManager? I am currently using:

m_pPaintManager = CXTPPaintManager::CreateTheme(xtpThemeOffice2003);

Is this correct?

When I use the paint manager like this:

void CFooBar::OnPaint()
{
  CPaintDC dc(this); // device context for painting

  m_pPaintManager->DrawRectangle(&dc, rectCaption, FALSE,FALSE,TRUE, FALSE, FALSE, xtpBarTypeNormal, xtpBarLeft);
}

I don't get a rectangle drawn.

Can anybody help?

Joel

	Hello, Yes, you have right code. In Offfice2003 theme not Selected/pressed state draws nothing. try to set bSelected parameter to TRUE.
