A C# application with the Codejock Ribbonbar is published as a RemoteApp on a Win2016 Server. Then the app window is frozen when the window is not maximized. Then it isn't possible to change to another ribbontab. When the window is maximized then all works as expected. This happens with the styles Office2013.dll and Office2016.dll. With Office2007.dll and Office2010.dll there a no problems.

You can reproduce this behavior with the Codejock C# sample application RibbonSample:

Compile the app and install it on a Win2016 server. Then deploy it as a RemoteApp.

Then call the RemoteApp from any other machine and you can see the effects.

I tried it with Codejock 18.6 on Visual Studio 2013 and Codejock 19 on Visual Studio 2017. There are always the same problems.

I have tried to set the flags for FrameShadowManager xtpFrameShadowsDisabledInTSS, xtpFrameShadowsInvisibleInTSS. And also cjframeshadowmanager.DisableShadow((int)this.Handle). But nothing helps.

We are also using a MFC application with the Codejock RibbonBar with the style Office2013.dll. There are no problems.

I tried this problem with RibbonSample(MFC 19.1.0) on Visual Studio 2015.

This problem has been considerably improved. However, sometimes redrawing is not performed.

Also, when the cursor is hovered over the ribbon, the tab may be suddenly switched.
