I've tried for so long

and still can't setup RibbonBar in a simple SDI project

is it possible to provide an simple Ribbon sample that can be understood without reading too many codes??

somehow it works now @@

but i got another problem.

now i have the RibbonBar but the docking pane has gone

m_paneManager.InstallDockingPanes(this);
// Set Office 2003 Theme
m_paneManager.SetTheme(xtpPaneThemeOffice2003);

is it because i am using xtpPaneThemeOffice2003??

Hi,

No, theme can't be problem. Do you create some panes?

i used the wizard to create the project and it created 2 panes for me

all i did to the project is remove menu and toolbar

and insert Ribbon

this is the creation of the panes

// Initialize the docking pane manager and set the
// initial them for the docking panes. Do this only after all
// control bars objects have been created and docked.
m_paneManager.InstallDockingPanes(this);
// Set Office 2003 Theme
m_paneManager.SetTheme(xtpPaneThemeOffice2003);

// Create docking panes.
CXTPDockingPane* pwndPane1 = m_paneManager.CreatePane(
IDR_PANE_OPTIONS, CRect(0, 0,200, 120), xtpPaneDockLeft);
CXTPDockingPane* pwndPane2 = m_paneManager.CreatePane(
IDR_PANE_PROPERTIES, CRect(0, 0,200, 120), xtpPaneDockBottom, pwndPane1);

// Set the icons for the docking pane tabs.
int nIDIcons[] = {IDR_PANE_OPTIONS, IDR_PANE_PROPERTIES};
m_paneManager.SetIcons(IDB_BITMAP_ICONS, nIDIcons,
_countof(nIDIcons), RGB(0, 255, 0));

// Load the previous state for docking panes.
CXTPDockingPaneLayout layoutNormal(&m_paneManager);
if (layoutNormal.Load(_T("NormalLayout")))
{
m_paneManager.SetLayout(&layoutNormal);
}

after adding these two line at the end

m_paneManager.ShowPane(IDR_PANE_OPTIONS);
m_paneManager.ShowPane(IDR_PANE_PROPERTIES);

it works too, but before using RibbonBar

Hi,

I know where the problem is now

I closed the docking panes when testing my sample

and by default, the layout was saved on close

that's why they never came out again.

thanks for the help :)
