I just 'ported' my application to CommandBars 15. It was a breeze. Thanks!

In previous versions I used the Scenic theme. In version 15, I use the following code snippet:

XTPResourceImages()->SetHandle(AfxGetInstanceHandle(), _T("WINDOWS7BLUE.INI"));
pCommandBars->SetTheme(xtpThemeRibbon);

The Ribbon is shown exactly as in previous versions, so that's OK.

The only problem is that the context menu's are not rendered correctly. They remain plain grey with black letters.

I've tested with some of the other themes, but for all of them the context menu's stay grey as well.

In previous versions of Codejock I did not need to do anything special to make the context menu's follow the theme. Did I miss something here?

David.

I've solved the problem myself by replacing the static call to TrackPopupMenu by a normal member function call of the same function of CXTPCommandBars.
