    Posted: 09 August 2010 at 7:53am
Hello
 
we have a fixed 'quickaccess' control with caption '#:' in our software.
RibbonBar always draws his bar correctly until our software is installed on a vista or win7 machines.
 
 
 
I found the problem is in


CSize CXTPRibbonTheme::DrawControlComboBox(CDC* pDC, CXTPControlComboBox* pControlCombo, BOOL bDraw)
 
The function FillCompositeAlpha inverts (?) (blue font on black background) the text after it has drawn (correctly!)...
I read in code comments this function do nothing when no aero is found.
 


   if (pControlCombo->HasDwmCompositedRect())


   {


      FillCompositeAlpha(pDC, pControlCombo->GetRect());


   }


   return 0;


}
 
 
Can anybody help me, please!?
 
(our software looks not very nice with a black box)

Right - ComboBox should not have label when you place it to Quick Access. Actually in code we change style to remove it - so seems you manually set it back.

Thanks for your replay.

My Combobox is derived from your class and I added following code to constructor

    SetDropDownListStyle( TRUE );
    SetWidth( 200 );
    SetStyle( xtpButtonCaption );
    .
    .
    .


So, when codejock adds a clone object to quickaccess the caption style will be changed. You're right.
But with intend!

I found it is a nice feature to add a description about the input box. Especially when you can add more input boxes.
Logical I see no reason why this is forbidden. Technical reasion to change it??
