Hi,
 
I know I had issues in the past with VB menu and CJ controls together on same form (SkinFrameWork, DockingPane and Commandbars) so I decided to replace all VB menus with CJ Commandbars Shocked
 
Yes, finally... So dropping a CB on main form, create menu in code, add necessary event handlers, done... Let's do some tests and see how it looks
 
 
Damn, a lot of flickering when showing/closing other forms. It just looks like the statusbar (also CJ) hides and DockingPane resizes all panes and Statusbar is showing again (this happens in a split second)
 
I didn't want to change anything in my original project, so I just copied entire project and tried to:
  • Set order of the controls (SkinFrameWork, DockingPane and Commandbars) NO LUCK
  • Removed entire VB menu (I removed all in code with creating CJ menu, but just be sure) NO LUCK
  • Removed MS statusbar (wasn't visible but just be sure) NO LUCK
  • Another attempt to set order of the controls (SkinFrameWork, DockingPane and Commandbars) NO LUCK
  • Rearranging code (creating CJ menu before creating panes, no Statusbar, no menu) NO LUCK
  • Don't know what I did but I think set SkinFrameWork to BACK. I'm not sure though, I was desperate after hours of trying, rearraging, removing etc etc. so I'm not sure...

But yes I got it working now and without the flickers. The thing that worries me is that I change the order of controls and I can't get it working anymore. I have the form backuped a couple of times just to be sure !!!

 
Now, is there someone from support who knows exactly what to do? Please, respond to this post      
 
 
Thanks a lot

Do you have one of your handy projects for us to see what you do?

I assume you send Docking Panes to BACK and have this line:
DockingPaneManager.SetCommandBars Me.CommandBars

Hi SuperMario,
 
Yes, I did that but that didn't make any difference (after I dropped CB on form) so I did some fiddling as I mentioned in topmost reply and "suddely" it worked....
 
So you say I only have to
  • send DP to BACK
  • DockingPaneManager.SetCommandBars Me.CommandBars
and it should work? I'm sure I did that (because of the huge number of posts regarding this issue in this forum) I have still my original project with the VB menu, I will make a copy, try again tomorrow and will report back inhere.
 
 
Thanks

I can't think of any other reason than the one I mentioned.

Hi,
 
You are right, I tried with new copy and the only thing I had to do is:
  • send DockingPane to BACK
  • Me.wndDockingPaneMain .SetCommandBars Me.CommandBarsMain
 
Thanks
