i get a similar problem on vista but only when using the skin framework. if i dont apply a skin its ok if i apply a skin i dont see the top title bar in my window.. i can interact with it but its completely see thru with no borders. This only happens on vista, same code in xp & 2000 works fine. |

i havnt yet been able to reproduce in a small hello world type application. here is a screenshot of what it looks like. i will try modifying one of your demos to see if i can reproduce that way uploads/20070511_102127_Untitled.zip - uploads/20070511_102127_Untitled.zip |

Hi,
please check if you call .Caption property somewhere. Try to comment it once. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

| It doesnt have any issues if i do not call EnableFrameTheme. it definatly appears to be some sort of drawing but on vista only |

Hi, So you use skins and EnableFrameTheme ? If you comment skins do you see same? ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Yes we call enableframetheme at the start of the application then loadskin with the skin framework. I dont follow what you mean by "if you comment skins so you see same" |

| if i dont apply a skin the ribbon shows the caption bar correctly. If i comment out EnableFrameTheme line the skinning works but i have an extra caption bar now which looks a little silly. as mentioned before i have no such problem on Windows XP. |

Hi,
Instead .Caption use SetWindowText to set caption for Ribbon frames. (use search in forum for SetWindowText word) ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |
