Hi, How to change the vertical font of DockPane ? I tried the similar method from https://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13604&PID=46376#46376 - this post by overriding RefreshMetrics() of CXTPTabPaintManager and set this paintmanager as dockingpane's tabpaintmanager but it didnt helped me ? |

Thanks Oleg, void CXTPTabPaintManager::SetFontIndirect(LOGFONT* pLogFont, BOOL bUseStandardFont /*= FALSE*/) { ... ... STRCPY_S(pLogFont->lfFaceName, LF_FACESIZE, CXTPDrawHelpers::GetVerticalFontName(FALSE)); pLogFont->lfOrientation = 900; pLogFont->lfEscapement = 2700; pLogFont->lfHeight = pLogFont->lfHeight < 0 ? __min(-11, pLogFont->lfHeight) : pLogFont->lfHeight; pLogFont->lfWeight = m_bBoldNormal ? FW_BOLD : FW_NORMAL; VERIFY(m_fntVerticalNormal.CreateFontIndirect(pLogFont)); pLogFont->lfWeight = FW_BOLD; VERIFY(m_fntVerticalBold.CreateFontIndirect(pLogFont)); } CXTPTabPaintManager gets the vertical font from CXTPDrawHelpers ? So i used the following code in my app void MyTabPaintManager::RefreshMetrics() { CXTPTabPaintManager::RefreshMetrics(); LOGFONT lf1,lf2,lf3,lf4; m_fntNormal.GetLogFont(&lf1); m_fntBold.GetLogFont(&lf2); m_fntVerticalNormal.GetLogFont(&lf3); m_fntVerticalBold.GetLogFont(&lf4); _tcscpy(lf1.lfFaceName,_T("MY FONT")); _tcscpy(lf2.lfFaceName,_T("MY FONT")); _tcscpy(lf3.lfFaceName,_T("MY FONT")); _tcscpy(lf4.lfFaceName,_T("MY FONT")); m_fntNormal.DeleteObject(); m_fntBold.DeleteObject(); m_fntVerticalNormal.DeleteObject(); m_fntVerticalBold.DeleteObject(); m_fntNormal.CreateFontIndirect(&lf1); m_fntBold.CreateFontIndirect(&lf2); m_fntVerticalNormal.CreateFontIndirect(&lf3); m_fntVerticalBold.CreateFontIndirect(&lf4); } m_paneManager.SetTheme(xtpPaneThemeOffice2003); m_paneManager.GetPaintManager()->SetPanelPaintManager(new MyTabPaintManager()); When i post the question i didnt get the Vertical font because i accidentally set the theme for panemanager after changing the TabPaintManager :( Now i am able to get the Vertical font but Office 2003 theme is not working for Tabs ? |

After these lines also switch:
pPanelPaintManager->SetAppearance(xtpTabAppearancePropertyPageFlat); pPanelPaintManager->SetColor(xtpTabColorOffice2003); ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Hi,
Not all fonts can be drawn vertically. so we have stick to some that can. If you change it - test in windows 95 to be sure your font can do it. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Hi Oleg, Our fonts works without problem in Win98. But I am confused about How can i make XT to use my font for Vertical text in a simple straight forward way rather than overiding theme(every one of them ) to change the font. |
