I am enabling the Office 2007 frame theme for our app. It works well at first, but pretty quickly you start to see the standard windows controls (Minimize, Maximize, etc) being displayed on top of the "themed" control box. Problem stops for a minute if you minimize, then maximize the form, but always starts again.

Same problem does not happen when I'm running the CJ ribbonbar sample.

Here's the code I'm using:

With CommandBar1
        .VisualTheme = xtpThemeRibbon
        .EnableOffice2007Frame True
        .Options.SetIconSize True, 32, 32
        .ActiveMenuBar.EnableDocking xtpFlagStretched
        .Icons = frmMain.ImageManager2.Icons
        .Options.UseDisabledIcons = True
        .Options.IconsWithShadow = True
        .Options.OfficeStyleDisabledIcons = True
    End With

    Set RibbonBar = CommandBar1.AddRibbonBar("The Ribbon")
    RibbonBar.EnableDocking xtpFlagStretched
    RibbonBar.EnableFrameTheme
    RibbonBar.Closeable = False
    RibbonBar.Customizable = False

    Set ControlFile2 = RibbonBar.AddSystemButton()
    ControlFile2.IconId = 3000
    RibbonBar.ShowQuickAccess = False

    Set RibbonBar = frmMain.cbMain.ActiveMenuBar

Can anyone see a problem here?

Thanks,

Dan

Hi,

if you use RibbonBar.EnableFrameTheme

don't call EnableOffice2007Frame True

Had previously tried without setting EnableOffice2007Frame to true. Doesn't help...still seeing the standard windows controls.

Here's an image if that would help. Note both the standard controls on the right, and the faint line which is drawn all the way across the control box.

Hmm :( We need it on our side to test why it happen. Can you try to reproduce it with new project with same code you have now?

Oleg, let me play with this for a bit. I may come upon the fix while working on other changes, but if not, I'll probably have to put together a new project as you mention.

That did it! Thank you, Oleg. Don't think I would have ever figured that one out...
