Maximized application window of ribbon 2007 theme in 15.3.1: Picture shows upper left screen corner. See red arrow, icons are correct. Same code in 16.2.0:  As you can see, the buttons are out of screen in 16.2.0 The code for skin generation on app start is: XTPSkinManager()->GetResourceFile()->SetModuleHandle(AfxGetInstanceHandle()); VERIFY(XTPSkinManager()->LoadSkin(NULL, _T("NORMALBLUE.INI"))); XTPPaintManager()->SetTheme(xtpThemeRibbon); XTPColorManager()->SetLunaTheme(xtpSystemThemeBlue); Any suggestions? Codejock, should I file an issue? ------------- Product: XTP 18.3.0 on VS 2017 Platform: VS 2017 / Windows 10 (64bit) |

You can verify this with CJ Ribbon.RibbonSample demo. Just select Office 2007 or Office 2010 theme and select "Frame Theme" and "Frame Transparency" active. Behavior can be observed on different Windows 7 machines here. Was okay with 15.3.1 sample. ------------- Product: XTP 18.3.0 on VS 2017 Platform: VS 2017 / Windows 10 (64bit) |

This got better in 16.2.2 - but is still NOT fixed 100%. Just check out your RibbonSample and toggle Frame Transparancy. With transparent frame active there are still a few pixels missing above the Quick Access Toolbar - and the upper line of the Quick Access Toolbar itself is still out of screen.  Office 2010 Theme is also slightly wrong. Just compare the Quick Access Bar with MS Office or Excel 2010. ------------- Product: XTP 18.3.0 on VS 2017 Platform: VS 2017 / Windows 10 (64bit) |

Please release 16.3. soon, because we can't upgrade to 16.x (and VS2012 at all) until skinning works well. ------------- Product: XTP 18.3.0 on VS 2017 Platform: VS 2017 / Windows 10 (64bit) |

This is better in release 16.2.5, but still and sadly NOT good. Checkout RibbonSample with 2007 theme and toggle Frame Transparancy. The upper line of the quick access bar is still out of screen - and there should be 3 pixels between the bar and the screen corner. ------------- Product: XTP 18.3.0 on VS 2017 Platform: VS 2017 / Windows 10 (64bit) |

Hello gpm1, Can you reproduce the same problem on any of the sample applications included into ToolkitPro? Are you using SkinFramework with frame skinning enabled? Thank you. Regards, Alexander Stoyan |

Samples are working well. Problem with my application. I do not use skin dll, I use Office2007.cjstyles in my app. What do you mean: Are you using SkinFramework with frame skinning enabled?

Hello Pavel, If you enable SkinFramework at any point with xtpSkinApplyFrame option enabled, it will cause a conflict with the ribbon theme, that looks exactly like yours. If you are sure that you are not enabling skin framework anywhere, you you have to double check the way you load and apply ribbon theme and make sure it's one-to-one with the samples, as nothing has changed for this theme. Thanks, Alexander

I have exactly the same problem like Pavel. used XTP 15.3.1 before with Office 2010 Theme via embedded resources in rc2 file like this: #ifdef _OFFICE2010 #include "Styles\Office2007\Office2007.rc" #include "SkinFramework\Styles\Office2010\Office2010.rc" #include "Styles\Office2010\Office2010.rc" The application looked like this:  After migration to XTP 16.4.0 it looks so:  xtpSkinApplyFrame is deactivated: XTPSkinManager()->SetApplyOptions(xtpSkinApplyColors | xtpSkinApplyMetrics); Any ideas? Best regards! Mikhail |

In additional I need to say that I'm using SkinFramework and Styles together. It also looks like since XTP 16.2 there is no way just to embed a Styles and SkinFramework resources into app resource without using an external Theme dll/cjstyles as at was before. Am I Right? Regards, Mikhail |

After some try and errors I found out what loading a skin into Skin Framework after setting CommandBar Styles but not before helps. That also works with embedded Styles resources as well. Regards, Mikhail |
