Ribbon with xtpThemeResource

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

   If I set up a ribbon bar with the theme xtpThemeResource, I find that it works well and looks great apart from the fact that the group caption text is clipped.

It appears to be down to the fact that m_nGroupCaptionHeight is too small. This happens because the base class CXTPPaintManager::UpdateFonts function is called and the SetCommandBarsFontIndirect is set up with a CLogFont structure with a smaller lfHeight member than is (presumably) used in the CXTPRibbonThemeResource::DrawGroup function.

The xtpThemeRibbon theme overrides the UpdateFonts and the SetCommandBarsFontIndirect is set up with a CLogFont structure with a bigger lfHeight member.

Is this a bug or should I not be using the xtpThemeResource with a ribbon?

I managed to find a solution by copying the ribbon UpdateFonts function into the CXTPRibbonThemeResource class but I don't like this solution.

Any help or advice would be appreciated,
James
