Hey folks,

I have a command bar, created as such:

CXTPPopupBar* pPopupBar = CXTPPopupBar::CreatePopupBar(0);
pop->SetCommandBar(pPopupBar);
pControl = pop->GetCommandBar()->GetControls()->Add(new CXTPControlLabel(), 0);

My application uses a custom skin created with the SkinBuilder. The command bar skins correctly.

I would like to set a unique bg color to the CXTPControlLabel, different from the standard button entries, but the theme does not seem to support this.

If i derive my own paint manager from the office theme CXTPOfficeTheme, then I can ovveride the drawpopuplabel, or just set m_arrColor[XPCOLOR_LABEL], but then them does not respect the rest of the CJ skin i created.

If i derive my own paint manager from CXTPNativeXPTheme, then the skin is respected, but there's no hook for intercepting or changing the labels BG color to be different from normal button entries.

Any ideas?

thx

Morgan
