I want to build a color pick combobox on Toolbar, which looks like:

http://www.codeproject.com/KB/combobox/colourpickercb.aspx

I applied Xtreme Toolkit Pro for toolbar and used the class CXTPControlComboBox. It's not inherit from the class Combo, so I couldn't apply the class of the codeproject. But I don't know how to do the same thing in Xtreme Toolkit Pro.
Any suggestion? Thanks a lot.

sorry, I made a mistake.
Something is wrong.
When I compile in VC6.0:
Compiling...
ColorComboBox.cpp
E:\yanwei\knowledge\C++\colorcombox\ColorCombo_From_CodeJock\ColorComboBox.cpp(30) : error C2660: 'CXTPControlComboBox::CXTPControlComboBox' : function does not take 1 parameters
Error executing cl.exe.

Then I change

CColorComboBox::CColorComboBox(CXTPCommandBars* pCommandBars)
: CXTPControlComboBox(pCommandBars)

To

CColorComboBox::CColorComboBox(CXTPCommandBars* pCommandBars)
: CXTPControlComboBox()

Compile is successful. It turns out The Edit box of Combobox is right, but the Dropdownlist of Combobox is empty(i.e., no color rectangle or text.)

Please see the picture using PrintScreen:

I think drawitem() function draw the dropdownlist, but after debugging, I found it never went into drawitem(). I check the sample of Xtreme Toolkit Pro, and found that drawitem() is also useless in the Xtreme ToolkitPro v11.1.0\Samples\CommandBars\CustomThemes.

By the way, I used Xtreme ToolkitPro v11.1.0.

Any Suggestion?
Thanks a lot.
