Vertical alignment of captions

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

   We are using a TaskPanel with the xtpTaskPanelThemeListViewOffice2003 style, and have some issues with the vertical alignment of icon captions.  Captions are top aligned, rather than vertically centered with regards to the icon.
Do I have to create a custom theme to get the desired behavior (see illustration)?  If this is a FAQ, please point me in the right direction.

	I ran into this too. Visible caption alignment is very important for a UI control, yet this has gone unanswered since 2011. I'm not sure any of the developers scan the forums for issues any longer. Perhaps a junior person could be giving the forum questions a quick scan to summarize questions/bugs to address later. At any rate, the only thing that sort of works is to find the constructor: CXTPTaskPanelPaintManager::CXTPTaskPanelPaintManager() In XTPTaskPanelPaintManager.cpp Change this: m_nItemTextFormat = DT_WORDBREAK \| DT_NOPREFIX; To this: m_nItemTextFormat = DT_SINGLELINE \| DT_VCENTER \| DT_NOPREFIX; *Note that this removes multiline capability. DT_VCENTER does not work with DT_WORDBREAK!
