What exactly is needed to be authored for bitmaps and icons for the System Button fora RibbonBar? I see the example, but it uses a PNG file. I assume a bitmap can be used instead? What are the requirements? https://forum.codejock.com/uploads/20070109_133315_untitled.zip - uploads/20070109_133315_untitled.zip

The zip file contains a screen shot of what my System Button looks like. I have obviously done something incorrect.

I have used the following code to create the RibbonBar:

CMyRibbonBar* pRibbonBar = (CMyRibbonBar*)pCommandBars->Add(_T("The Ribbon"), xtpBarTop, RUNTIME_CLASS(CMyRibbonBar));

if (!pRibbonBar)

return FALSE;

pRibbonBar->EnableDocking(0);

CMenu mnuMain; mnuMain.LoadMenu(IDR_MAINFRAME_EX);

CXTPControlPopup* pControlFile = (CXTPControlPopup*)pRibbonBar->AddSystemButton(ID_MENU_FILE);

pControlFile->SetCommandBar(mnuMain.GetSubMenu(0));

pControlFile->SetIconId(IDB_MAINFRAME);

UINT uCommand = {IDB_MAINFRAME};

pCommandBars->GetImageManager()->SetIcons(IDB_MAINFRAME, &uCommand, 1, xtpImageNormal);

pCommandBars->GetImageManager()->SetIcons(IDB_MAINFRAME, &uCommand, 1, xtpImageHot);

pCommandBars->GetImageManager()->SetIcons(IDB_MAINFRAME, &uCommand, 1, xtpImagePressed);

pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_RUNINBACKGROUND);

pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->Add(xtpControlButton, ID_EDIT_PREFERENCES);

pRibbonBar->GetQuickAccessControls()->CreateOriginalControls();

pRibbonBar->SetCloseable(FALSE);

pRibbonBar->EnableFrameTheme();

This is the image that I am using.

Also, the images in the QuickAccess are too small. They are 16x16 bitmaps, but they dont appear correct. Here is a screen shot:

What do I need to do to fix this?
