Painting command bar area background?

(XTP 10.31)

I am trying to figure how to paint myself the parts of the area marked red in the picture below:

▼
▲

I have intentionally moved the 2nd command bar to the right to show that I'm looking for that background (currently gray) color. It might not be obvious from the picture, but it is the same color and essentially the same area.

I have my own CXTPTabPaintManager and CXTPDefaultTheme-derived classes, but there don't seem to be any virtual methods which I could override in order to paint that part of (let's call it like that) the command bar area. 

In fact, I'm not even sure that the above area actually belongs to command bars, nor that it is painted by those XTP clases. It might well be that it is the CXTPFrameWnd code that does the drawing.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

	Doesn't matter, I've found it. class MyPaintManager : public CXTPPaintManager { ▼ ▲ Snippet virtual void MyPaintManager::FillDockBar(CDC* pDC, CXTPDockBar* pBar) { pDC->FillSolidRect(CXTPClientRect((CWnd)pBar), <COLORREF color>* ); } ...
