13.1 problem with Scenic and White Themes?

Put the following in your .RC2 file

#include "Styles\Office2007Scenic\Office2007Scenic.rc"
#include "Styles\Office2007White\Office2007White.rc"

Then incorporate code similar to that in the ribbon sample to swap themes.

Well I find I fail to get some window elements updated correctly if I copy the ribbonsample code exactly and certainly can't get by without sending a WM_NCPAINT message... dunno whether you have something similar. For what it is worth, the full code I use is copied below:

void CGFMainWnd::OnOptionsStyle(UINT nStyle)

{
HMODULE hModule = AfxGetInstanceHandle();

    LPCTSTR lpszIniFile = 0;
    switch (nStyle)
    {
        default:
        case ID_OPTIONS_STYLEBLUE:
            lpszIniFile = _T("OFFICE2007BLUE.INI"); break;
        case ID_OPTIONS_STYLEBLACK:
            lpszIniFile = _T("OFFICE2007BLACK.INI"); break;
        case ID_OPTIONS_STYLEAQUA:
            lpszIniFile = _T("OFFICE2007AQUA.INI"); break;
        case ID_OPTIONS_STYLESILVER:
            lpszIniFile = _T("OFFICE2007SILVER.INI"); break;
        case ID_OPTIONS_STYLESCENIC:
            lpszIniFile = _T("OFFICE2007SCENIC.INI"); break;
        case ID_OPTIONS_STYLEWHITE:
            lpszIniFile = _T("OFFICE2007WHITE.INI"); break;
    }

((CXTPOffice2007Theme*)GetCommandBars()->GetPaintManager())->SetImageHandle(hModule, lpszIniFile);

    GetCommandBars()->GetImageManager()->RefreshAll();
    GetCommandBars()->RedrawCommandBars();
    SendMessage(WM_NCPAINT);

    m_paneManager.GetPaintManager()->RefreshMetrics();
    m_MTIClientWnd.GetPaintManager()->RefreshMetrics();
    CXTPPaintManager::SetTheme(xtpThemeRibbon);

RedrawWindow(0, 0, RDW_ALLCHILDREN|RDW_INVALIDATE);

m_nRibbonStyle = nStyle;
}

I have created a video to show the problem on Vista, please click Large Size to see the Ribbon tabs properly (and you may need to make full screen.

We're having this problem with the white theme as well (tab text is wrong color).

Main difference between our app and sample is that we link statically. Our app .rc2 contains all the required resources, and all other themes are working perfectly.
