Hi,

I'm sorry that this topic has already been discussed, but I'm having a problem when trying to add a ribbon in DialogSample. I've downloaded the eval version 10.4.2 and copied the ribbon adding code from the Ribbon SDI sample to the DialogSample. Everytime I start the sample it crashes in xtpribbonbar.cpp line 375. If I comment out the RepositionControls function calls in OnSize it doesn't crash, but doesn't show the toolbars.

Please help!

Best Regards
Ivo

I don't have the project with me now, but I can explain simply what I've done. In the DialogSample I simply added the following two lines in OnInitDialog at the end:

CXTPRibbonBar* pRibbonBar = (CXTPRibbonBar*)pCommandBars->Add("The Ribbon", RUNTIME_CLASS(CXTPRibbonBar));

pRibbonBar->EnableDocking(0);

After that the sample started crashing everytime as I explained it above. Please check it. I use the eval 10.4.2 version.

Hi,

You also need 2 things:

1. in res\DialogSample.rc2 add

#include "Ribbon\Styles\Office2007Blue\Office2007Blue.rc"

2. before create ribbon set ribbon theme:

pCommandBars->SetTheme(xtpThemeRibbon);
