When I use
m_paneManager.SetTheme(xtpPaneThemeOffice2007);
then it doesn't show the tabs on the pans that are like a tab control.
All other themes works fine. You still get the tooltips, you can still click (if you know where) but no labels and no tab outlines etc, just the grey background.

hmmm
looks to be because
XTPOffice2007Images()->IsValid()
returns false in
CXTPTabPaintManager::CAppearanceSetPropertyPage2007::FillTabControl
how to get these images and files etc configured correctly?

Hi,
Add line in your rc2 file:
#include "Styles\Office2007Blue\Office2007Blue.rc"

OK, thanks for that. it works now.
How do you get Office2007 theme to mirror the selected Luna theme though? It stays blue all the time... I see there are other themes, do you need to manually change the theme? It tracks the OS when you choose Office2003 themes... why not for Office 2007 theme?

Hi,
its the thing of Office2007 products and our Office2007 theme - its always blue/black or silver in all OS. If you don't like it just don't use this theme. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

OK, I understand thanks for that. It's a shame, since the Office2007 theme for things like docking pane tab headers is much nicer than the Office 2003 theme etc.
You might want to look at CXTPReportControl then, since its header does change colour when set to Office2007 theme.
How about an option where we can tell the theme to mirror the OS setting :)

the reason it's a problem also, is that unless you have all controls everywhere set to use the Office2007 theme, when you change system colour themes (i.e. Luna themes on XP), then some parts of the app change colour and others don't, you can end up with a real mixture of colours which is a bit ugly.
for us, since we are using modules to provide different parts of the GUI, it's even more difficult, since all different modules would need to be told if the user were to select a different colour scheme.

For another example, take CXTCaption
there's no Office2007 theme for this, so I've got this sexy black GUI, with a blue caption.

| adrien, I solved that sexiness problem by putting all my windows inside panes. Looks great in all modes :) |
