The File menu in the Ribbon Backstage view is not highlighted and invisible.

Running the Ribbon Sample and select the File menu will show something like this:

Just to be clear, I also see this in my own Office2013 themed application.

Hi, try to use this

void CMainFrame::SetBackstageTheme()
{
	XTPPaintTheme	nPaintTheme = GetCommandBars()->GetPaintManager()->GetCurrentTheme();
 
	CXTPRibbonBar *pRibbonBar = (CXTPRibbonBar*)GetCommandBars()->GetMenuBar();
	CXTPRibbonBackstageView *pView = DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST(CXTPRibbonBackstageView, pRibbonBar->GetSystemButton()->GetCommandBar());

	if (pView)
		pView->SetTheme(nPaintTheme);
....

OK, now it does something.

But when I select Office2013Excel as ribbon theme, I would expect the background to be green and not blue. It seems that the ribbon backstage Office2013 theme is always blue, how do I get it to follow the Office2013Excel ribbon theme?

And the same for the backstage buttons. I can set the xtpControlThemeOffice2013 theme, but it does not follow the green Office2013Excel ribbon theme.

My problem is, I can alter the CodeJock code to create the themes and look I want, but if you are already working on fixing these issues I have better thing to do. I need some feedback telling me when things like this will be fixed. Also see my post http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=22842" rel="nofollow - http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=22842 .

OK, taking back the part with the backstage buttons. Looking at the ribbon sample the backstage is repeatably created when the theme is changed. This makes the the CXTPButton use the resources from the paint manager at creation.

But the problem still exist for the background of the ribbon File menu.

I see that issue fixed just for Office2013 Word theme. But VisualStudio2015 , Excel2013, Access2013 and other 2013 themes are not implemented for Ribbon's Backstage. We are working on this.

Well just replace the hardcoded values:

COLORREF m_clrNormal = RGB(43, 87, 154);

COLORREF m_clrSelected = RGB(62, 109, 181);

COLORREF m_clrHighlighted = RGB(25, 71, 138);

to something like this:

COLORREF clrNormal = XTPIniColor(_T("CommandBars.Ribbon"),_T("TabTextSelected"),RGB(255,0,0));

COLORREF clrSelected = XTPIniColor(_T("CommandBars.Ribbon"),_T("ButtonBackChecked"),RGB(159, 213, 183));

COLORREF clrHighlighted = XTPIniColor(_T("CommandBars.Ribbon"),_T("ButtonBackCheckedHighlight"),RGB(211, 240, 224));

in the CXTPRibbonBackstageViewThemeOffice2013 class.
