I am using Windows 10 Pro with Visual Studio 2015 Pro and all was working fine except Ribbon Themes still do not work.  We have upgraded to 17.0 (C++ MFC) from 10.4.2 (C++ MFC).  All worked before the upgrade, any pointers as to what has changed since?
Thank you,
Terry Mancey

I just checked the Calendar Sample with v17 Release Candidate and I don't notice any issues with the Visual Studio 2015 Ribbon:



Make sure you are loading the resource DLL as the first step before you set any themes.

You can use the built in CXTPThemeDll manager and pass in the INI file name constant located in "Source\Common\XTPResourceImage.h".

This will automate loading the resource DLL's for you, for example: 
XTPThemeDLL()->SetHandle(xtpIniVisualStudio2015Dark); // always load theme DLL first.
CXTPPaintManager::SetTheme(xtpThemeVisualStudio2015);
