Hi,
Can I set tab item's color for any tabs? Like when OneNote colorset enabled but with my custom color for specified items.

Hi,

Enable OneNote colors and catch WM_XTP_GETTABCOLOR message in CChildFrame.

I have no child frame, I'd like to use it in separate modal dialog of SDI application.
WM_XTP_GETTABCOLOR have not sent neither parent dialog nor mainframe.

Any other options available?

PS. Why not used some virtual method in CXTPTabControl like
virtual COLORREF CXTPTabControl::GetTabColor(int iItem) const;

Or, the most simple way, CXTPTabControl::SetItemColor(int iItem, COLORREF rgb);
f.e.?

Hi,

Call .GetItem(nItem)->SetColor(rgb);
