MDI-app with ribbon cannot be maximized!

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

   When I add a simple ribbon to my MDI-application, the right border is not painted when maximized. The same is true for the bottom border. See attached pictures. Worth mentioning is that I can click in this "unpainted" area - like the desktop. Thus, the window is not trully maximized!

If I remove my call to CreateRibbonBar(), the borders are painted correctly.
What can be wrong?

// Before call to CreateRibbonBar():
pCommandBars->SetTheme(xtpThemeRibbon);
BOOL CMainFrame::CreateRibbonBar()
{
    CXTPCommandBars* pCommandBars = GetCommandBars();
    CMenu menu;
    menu.Attach(::GetMenu(m_hWnd));
    SetMenu(NULL);
    CXTPRibbonBar* pRibbonBar = (CXTPRibbonBar*)pCommandBars->Add(_T("The Ribbon"), xtpBarTop, RUNTIME_CLASS(CXTPRibbonBar));
    if (!pRibbonBar)
    {
        return FALSE;
    }
    pRibbonBar->EnableDocking(0);
    //pRibbonBar->GetTabPaintManager()->m_bSelectOnButtonDown = FALSE;
    CXTPControlPopup* pControlFile = (CXTPControlPopup*)pRibbonBar->AddSystemButton(ID_MENU_FILE);
    pControlFile->SetCommandBar(menu.GetSubMenu(0));
    pControlFile->SetIconId(IDB_GEAR);
    UINT uCommand = {IDB_GEAR};
    pCommandBars->GetImageManager()->SetIcons(IDB_GEAR, &uCommand, 1, xtpImageNormal);
    pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_SAVE);
    pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_EDIT_UNDO);
    pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_PRINT);
    pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->CreateOriginalControls();

    pRibbonBar->SetCloseable(FALSE);
    pRibbonBar->EnableFrameTheme();
    return TRUE;
}

	// pRibbonBar->EnableFrameTheme(); That solves it, but then I get no "nice frame" :(. This frame looks ok in the Ribbon Sample. I'll take a look and see what else needs to be called to get the frame paint itself correctly.
