Thanks,
JPB

I'm using the CommandBars Office2007 black skin with the RibbonBar taking over the frame.
The Vista Black skin has different widgets for Minimize, Maximize and Close, as well as different "hot" styles for buttons. This means that forms that appear (i.e. CommonDialogs) using the Vista skin do not look the same as the main window that is using the Office 2007 skin.

That is, unless I am missing something.

I was just wondering if there was going to be an Office 2007 black skin as part of the SkinFramework so that everything can match (CommandBars, RibbonBars and all other controls & forms).

Thanks,
JPB

I've asked the same here http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5888 - http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5888 and got the same lame reply...

I'm also still waiting for Office 2007 style tabs and docking panes.

I've been trying to put together a black skin by replacing png's in the Office2007.cjstyles resource file, but I can't get certain aspects to work right.

It would be wonderful if CJ would post some kind of tutorial on how they made their skins...that is, if they have no intention of spending the time to make them for us.

The vista skin sucks BTW. Office2007 Black and silver are what we want!

I found these...they're better than anything I've seen yet.

The code to reference it is something like this...

SkinFramework1.LoadSkin App.Path + "\Styles\Office 2007.msstyles", "normalblack.ini"

I find it pretty amazing that you cant have a consisent interface between the ribbon bar and the rest of an application.
 
I want to use the ribbon bar and side bar, in black, and have the same look and feel.
 
Seems its not possible...?
