Hi,

I want to draw the text of a tab item differently. I looked at the code of CXTTabCtrl and CXTTabBase, and it seems that the right way to do it is by setting a "CXTTabBaseTheme" derrived class object to my tab control class(CMyTabCtrl which derive from CXTTabCtrl).

How can I set a "CXTTabBaseTheme" derrived class object to my tab control ? or is there another way to do what I want ?

Yoav.

I forgot to mention 2 things:

1. My tab control is owner-drawn (I modify its style to TCS_OWNERDRAWFIXED).

2. My code worked in Xtreme ver9.6 and stoped working when I made upgrade to ver9.8 (I caught the event CMyTab::DrawItem which in ver9.8 is not reachable).
