We have an application which is having issues with the Whte theme for ribbons, does anybody know where it draws the actual text for these tabs within the XTP library source code??? As we want to debug this to find out why

However it goes into the IsCompositeRect and then IntersectRect it has two rectangles of:
Ribbon: Top = 0, Bottom = 30, Left = -4 and Right = 1013 Tab: Top = 33, Bottom = 53, Left = 302 and Right = 327 And this is reason it passes back FALSE for bIsComposite for white theme for us, but what could be causing this? We are running Vista x64 with multiple monitors (1920 x 1600 resolution on each monitor) ------------- Thank you, Terry Mancey email terry@tmancey.ltd.uk | linkedin www.tmancey.ltd.uk | twitter @tmancey |

Ah for some reason your sample is calling: AFX_INLINE BOOL IsCompositeRect(CXTPCommandBar* pRibbonBar, const CRect& rc) Which is found in the XTPRibbonPaintManager.cpp class however our application for some reason is calling: AFX_INLINE BOOL IsCompositeRect(CXTPCommandBar* pRibbonBar, const CRect& rc) from XTPRibbonTheme.cpp Any ideas why this would happen lol ------------- Thank you, Terry Mancey email terry@tmancey.ltd.uk | linkedin www.tmancey.ltd.uk | twitter @tmancey |

IsCompositeRect in XTPRibbonPaintManager has some extra code which adds the tab height to the rectangle??? But IsCompositeRect which our application calls does not have this extra code???

weird. these marked as inline and have to work only inside this cpp :( Please rename IsCompositeRect to IsCompositeRect2 inside XTPRibbonPaintManager.cpp. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |
