XTP 12.0.1.
The shadow goes completely black here. I guess you perform some XOR operation with the underlying GDI, which is (I guess) black.
I'm not sure if I'd call this a bug, but it's indeed a problem. The menu is ugly when our 3D window is shown :(

Hi,
We use stadnard UpdateLayeredWindow API method to make shadow transparent.
you can disable Alpha shadow with such patch:
BOOL CXTPShadowManager::IsAlphaShadow() { return FALSE; } ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |
