    Posted: 31 January 2012 at 10:47pm
 Hi, after a long search of every 'hook' skinning option I found, each with practically the same problems, and skipping BCGsoft due to very high licensing fees, I wound up here for a skinning solution.  It's fantastic that it supports user-created .msstyles as there are a lot of nice ones out there.
 
However
 
I can't test SkinFramework eval on my app because there is no separate SkinFramework eval, and the ToolkitProEval.MFC.v15.2.1.exe won't install.  I get all the way to the dialog where it gives an 'Install' button and then when I hit it, the installer just disappears.
 
Boom.
 
Gone.
 
Process:  Gone.
 
Here is what is in the install list on that last page of the installer:
 
Destination location:
      C:\Program Files\Codejock Software\MFC\Xtreme ToolkitPro v15.2.1 (30 Day Trial)

Setup type:
      Full installation


Selected components:
      Required Components
         Runtime Libraries
      Optional Components
         Online Documentation
         Command Bars Designer
         Sample Projects
         Language Files
         Chart Builder


Start Menu folder:
      Codejock Software
 
Running WinXP SP3, trying to enable operation with Visual Studio 2008 9.0.30729
 
Any ideas?

Ok, that took care of it, thank you.  The website version displayed the same (15.2.1) but it updated from 15.2.1.0 to 15.2.1.125
 
Getting into it now.  Is there a 'converting your CToolbar filled SDI app to use XTP skins' paper? I looked at the SkinFramework whitepaper but it wasn't very instructional.
 
It appears the steps would go something like:
 
1) #include <XTToolkitPro.h> //in your StdAfx.h (or root include)
2) in app InitInstance() call  CXTPWinDwmWrapper().SetProcessDPIAware();
3) ?
4) call XTPSkinManager()->LoadSkin(..); to apply a skin,
5) call XTPPaintManager()->RefreshMetrics();
6) redraw your windows
 
Anything I missed? Do CToolBars need to be changed to CXTPCommandBars?
 
Thank you
