XTP 13.1, RibbonSample.

When toggling the frame theme, the window is restored. This is very annoying, so I removed the ShowWindow-call below. However, if removed, the behavior is really weird (buggy). I have found that Vista GUI changes the logic somehow. Can you please test this function a little bit and comment?

void CMainFrame::OnFrameTheme()

{

ShowWindow(SW_NORMAL); // Why?! Removing it solves one thing, but screws another...

CXTPRibbonBar* pRibbonBar = (CXTPRibbonBar*)GetCommandBars()->GetAt(0);

CXTPWindowRect rc(this);

rc.top += (pRibbonBar->IsFrameThemeEnabled() ? -1 : +1) * GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYCAPTION);

MoveWindow(rc);

pRibbonBar->EnableFrameTheme(!pRibbonBar->IsFrameThemeEnabled());

}

Hi,

So "screws another" problem is restoring that you don't like ? Don't think your customers will switch it each day. Guess they can live with restoring frame once in life :)

anyway you can check WS_MAXIMIZE style and Maximize it back after you switch it.

Well, if I started my application in a maximized state I do not want to restore it just like that. And if I remove that ShowWindow-call, the frame theme gets screwed in Vista Aero (until I restart my application, of course).

But sure, I can live with a "restoration" once every 313 days :P
