Hi,

I'd like to change ribbon tabs font.

This code, put in CMainFrame::OnCreate, does not work.


LOGFONT lf;
CXTPRibbonTheme *pTheme = (CXTPRibbonTheme*)m_pRibbonBar->GetPaintManager();
theApp.m_font.GetLogFont(&lf);
pTheme->GetTabPaintManager()->SetFontIndirect(&lf);

I think it is due to the fact that I'm using a skin.

So, I set a timer and AFTER the window is opened, I set tabs font.

But I think it's not a good solution. So, how can I change tabs font?

Another question....

If I try to adopt the solution above (using the timer) and I also try to set the font for docking panes:

m_paneManager.GetPaintManager()->UseOfficeFont(TRUE);

the commandbars text (eg, groups caption) becomes... vertical.

Why?

I'd derive CXTPRibbonBar and do that in the constructor. Otherwise you need to redraw the entire ribbon before the font change will have effect.

I use "OnRecalcLayout" and it seems to work...
