Hi,

I'm currently evaluating Xtreme SuitePro ActiveX with VB.

I already use another Docking and Commandbars product, but I want to change because I'm having problems with that software and its not getting fixed.

I woundered if there is a setting that would make the dockpanes look the same in Xtreme Suite as how I have them in my old software.

So that docked panes caption bars look like toolwindows caption bars when docked.

I have attached a jpg of how my app currently looks.

Or is it possible to create a new 'Appearance' setting to show panes like this?

Thanks,

Rob D.

Hi,

Well I found the link below that says setting the VisualTheme to ThemeNativeWinXP should give the style I need..

http://www.codejock.com/products/dockingpane/activex/dp_themes_winxp.asp - http://www.codejock.com/products/dockingpane/activex/dp_them es_winxp.asp

However, setting this does not set the style to the one displayed, it gives me this...

Which is not the same style... Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

Rob D.

Hi,

I see...

But the example of yours at http://www.codejock.com/products/dockingpane/activex/dp_themes_winxp.asp - http://www.codejock.com/products/dockingpane/activex/dp_them es_winxp.asp  shows the style I like and already use in my old version.

How do I get the dock panes like the example in http://www.codejock.com/products/dockingpane/activex/dp_themes_winxp.asp - http://www.codejock.com/products/dockingpane/activex/dp_them es_winxp.asp ....

Because the code supplied there does not do it...

When I try to use 'DockingPaneManager.VisualTheme = ThemeNativeWinXP' I cannot get it to look like the screen shot that you have on that page.

Thanks,

Rob.

Hello,

Sorry, it is just screenhots from previous versions. Now it can't be changed back... I guess we will add some flag for future releases.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I guess I'll wait for the furture release then. The option/flag would be good to have.

Rob.
