Hello,

Unless I'm doing something wrong, it doesn't appear that the "xtpReportDrawSortTriangleAlways" option is functioning as intended in the v17 release.

I'm setting it as follows:

reportCtrl.GetPaintManager()->m_DrawSortTriangleStyle = xtpReportDrawSortTriangleAlways;

According to comments in the XTP source code, this should cause the sorted column caption to be truncated with an ellipses (if needed) so that the sort triangle is always shown. However, that's not what happens - the sort triangle is simply dropped if the column size becomes too small.

Regards,

Mark R.

Hello Mark,

Make sure that

reportCtrl.GetPaintManager()->m_DrawSortTriangleStyle = xtpReportDrawSortTriangleAlways;

called AFTER applying theme. Stop application after running (e.g. in some Draw method of paintManager) and check m_DrawSortTriangleStyle value.

You can find out where this variable is changed by setting data break point to m_DrawSortTriangleStyle in your SomeView::OnCreate method.

I know about similar issue with drawing sort triangle when PlusMinus enabled (CXTPReportColumn::SetPlusMinus(TRUE)), but it is hard to fix.

Perfect, that did the trick. Thanks for the info!
