Hello,

I post this question to forum_topics.asp?FID=38 - Xtreme ReportControl forum, but without luck. Maybe here I will be more lucky...

******
How can I change the CXTPReportControl's theme on the fly?

I have studied how to change the theme for the Ribbon and Docking Panes, but how to do it for the CXTPReportControl?

The GetPaintManager()->RefreshMetrics() does not help.

I need something like this, but for the CXTPReportControl:

Hi,

Report has only theme for Column headers.

Use GetReportCtrl().GetPaintManager()->SetColumnStyle(); method.

Yes,

I am using the: GetReportControl()->GetPaintManager()->SetColumnStyle(xtpReportColumnOffice2007);

for initially setting up the grid columns to Office 2007 style .
But I am unable to switch say from Blue to Silver or to Black mode without restarting the program (for command bars I can do this on the fly).

Thanks,
KP

Hi,

How do you switch ? try to call same line again after you reload images.

Here is the SetUITheme(UINT nMode) function code:

void CMainFrame::SetUITheme(UINT nMode)
{
    HMODULE hModule = AfxGetInstanceHandle();

    LPCTSTR lpszIniFile = 0;
    switch (nMode)
    {
        case ID_VIEW_UITHEMES_BLUE:
            lpszIniFile = _T("OFFICE2007BLUE.INI");
            break;

        case ID_VIEW_UITHEMES_SILVER:
            lpszIniFile = _T("OFFICE2007SILVER.INI");
            break;

        case ID_VIEW_UITHEMES_BLACK:
            lpszIniFile = _T("OFFICE2007BLACK.INI");
            break;

        default:
            ASSERT(FALSE);
            return;
    }

    ((CXTPOffice2007Theme*)GetCommandBars()->GetPaintManager())->SetImageHandle(hModule, lpszIniFile);
    ((CXTPOffice2007Theme*)XTPPaintManager())->SetImageHandle(hModule, lpszIniFile);
    XTPOffice2007Images()->SetHandle(hModule, lpszIniFile);

    //set thems
    CXTPPaintManager::SetTheme(xtpThemeOffice2007);
    XTPPaintManager()->SetTheme(xtpThemeOffice2007);
    m_paneManager.SetTheme(xtpPaneThemeOffice2007);
    m_wndSummaryPane.SetTheme(xtpGridThemeOffice2007);
    m_ctrlGrid.GetPaintManager()->SetColumnStyle(xtpReportColumnOffice2007);
    GetCommandBars()->GetToolTipContext()->SetStyle(xtpToolTipOffice2007);

    XTPPaintManager()->RefreshMetrics();

    GetCommandBars()->GetImageManager()->RefreshAll();
    GetCommandBars()->RedrawCommandBars();

    m_ctrlGrid.GetPaintManager()->RefreshMetrics();
    m_ctrlGrid.RedrawControl();

    SendMessage(WM_NCPAINT);
    RedrawWindow(0, 0, RDW_ALLCHILDREN|RDW_INVALIDATE);
}

everything works OK, except that the report control (m_ctrlGrid.) does not change it's theme (say from blue to black).

Thanks,
KP

Same problem here. Isn't there a black theme for the report control? And aqua etc?

I reach a good result with the following applet:

CXTPReportPaintManager* pPaintManager = pReport->GetPaintManager();
if( pPaintManager )
{
XTPPaintTheme paintTheme = GetPaintTheme();
if( (paintTheme == xtpThemeRibbon) || (paintTheme == xtpThemeOffice2007) )
{

COLORREF crRef =

XTPOffice2007Images()->GetImageColor( _T("PropertyGrid"),

_T("Background"));

pPaintManager->SetColumnOffice2007CustomThemeBaseColor(crRef);
}// If

pReport->RedrawControl();
}

I use the same colors as for the property grid.

cheers
