Yes,

start from DialogSample and copy code where you create Ribbon.

Hi, thanks for replay.

I've created dialog app

class CDlg_RbnDlg : public CXTPDialogBase<CDialog>

...

in OnCreate

if (CXTPDialogBase<CDialog>::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1)

return -1;

....

if (!InitCommandBars())

return -1;

CXTPCommandBars* pCommandBars = GetCommandBars();

pCommandBars->SetPaintManager(new CXTPRibbonTheme());

....

if (!CreateRibbonBar())

{

TRACE0("Failed to create ribbon\n");

return -1;

}

CreateRibbonBar is same as the example of the ribbon project

also, all resource I've copied from the example of the ribbon project in my project.

Everyting was compiled fine but when I run it there are no any ribbons, only dialog app. Have you any idea where's the problem ?

Regards,

Tihomir Ivanov

Here is the source code of the dialog app with ribbons,

I've created SDI app, copied the same code for creating the ribbons controls and it works, but in the dialog app there aren't any ribbons

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,

1. in \res\DlgRbn.rc2 add

#include "Ribbon\Styles\Office2007Blue\Office2007Blue.rc"
and can remove #include <XTToolkitPro.rc> (for static only)

2. in DlgRbnDlg.cpp add

...

ON_WM_SIZE()
...

void CDlgRbnDlg::OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy)
{
CDialog::OnSize(nType, cx, cy);
RepositionBars(AFX_IDW_CONTROLBAR_FIRST, AFX_IDW_CONTROLBAR_LAST, 0);
}
