I've been playing a bit with the report control and it worked just fine until I put it inside a tab control. Not sure if it's important, but I have a quite advanced window hierarchy:

I have a view with a splitter. In this splitter one of the panes is another view with a tab control (CXTPTabControl). This tab control has a number of views. Now, finally, in one of these views I have a report control.

Please note that ALL (all views, frames and tabs) my windows have the WS_CLIPCHILDREN | WS_CLIPSIBLINGS style enabled. Also, my report control has the WS_EX_STATICEDGE style. My report controls look OK in other windows, but not inside my tab control!

PROBLEM:

The border of the report control is not painted correctly. I tried disabling the skinning engine, but with no success. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

Show some code - how you create report, what styles, etc.

void CMyView::OnInitialUpdate()
{
CXTResizeFormView::OnInitialUpdate();

if (m_bInitDone)
return;

    SetResize(IDC_REPORT_SHORTQUESTIONS, SZ_TOP_LEFT, SZ_TOP_RIGHT);

    // SetScaleToFitSize(CSize(1, 1));

    m_reportShortQuestions.ModifyStyle(0, WS_CLIPCHILDREN | WS_CLIPSIBLINGS | WS_TABSTOP);
    m_reportShortQuestions.ModifyStyleEx(0, WS_EX_STATICEDGE);
    m_reportShortQuestions.GetReportHeader()->AllowColumnReorder(FALSE);
    m_reportShortQuestions.GetReportHeader()->AllowColumnSort(FALSE);
    m_reportShortQuestions.GetReportHeader()->AllowColumnResize(FALSE);
    m_reportShortQuestions.GetReportHeader()->AllowColumnRemove(FALSE);
    m_reportShortQuestions.FocusSubItems(TRUE);

    m_reportShortQuestions.AddColumn(new CXTPReportColumn(0, _T("Fr�ga"), 200));

    CXTPReportColumn *pColumnYes = new CXTPReportColumn(1, _T("Ja"), 28);
    CXTPReportColumn *pColumnNo = new CXTPReportColumn(2, _T("Nej"), 28);
    CXTPReportColumn *pColumnUnknown = new CXTPReportColumn(3, _T("Ok�nt"), 28);

    pColumnYes->SetAlignment(xtpColumnIconCenter);
    pColumnYes->SetHeaderAlignment(DT_CENTER);
    pColumnNo->SetAlignment(xtpColumnIconCenter);
    pColumnNo->SetHeaderAlignment(DT_CENTER);
    pColumnUnknown->SetAlignment(xtpColumnIconCenter);
    pColumnUnknown->SetHeaderAlignment(DT_CENTER);

    m_reportShortQuestions.AddColumn(pColumnYes);
    m_reportShortQuestions.AddColumn(pColumnNo);
    m_reportShortQuestions.AddColumn(pColumnUnknown);

    const int NUM_SHORT = 16;
    for (int i = 0; i < NUM_SHORT; i++)
        m_reportShortQuestions.AddRecord(new CShortQuestionRecord(i + 1, szShortQuestions));

    m_reportShortQuestions.SetMultipleSelection(FALSE);
    m_reportShortQuestions.Populate();

m_bInitDone = TRUE;
}

Should I strip my project and send you a sample where the error is present, or can you find the error by looking at the code above?

I made a test project which demonstrates the problem.

Please take a look.

Hi,

m_reportShortQuestions.ModifyStyleEx(0, WS_EX_STATICEDGE, SWP_FRAMECHANGED);
