Hi,
I'm trying to rebuild an old VB application. I added SkinFrameWork, DockingPanes and CommandBars to it. I didn't want to change code just to have more visual effects
Testing the application, we don't want any bugs in it, right? I found issues which I can't solve.
Maybe there are more... I don't know. PLEASE let me know if there are more problems to expect. I hope I can solve this as well, I got this far and want it to finish it now...
Thank you

Hello,
1. Yes, it depends on style.
2. SkinFramework now doesn't support standard Menus. We working with this feature for 12.1 release. Please try beta when it will be available.

Hi,
2, 3. I very recommend you create CommandBar in code to prevent such things. :-( Will I'm testing it but not sure how reproduce 3.

Hi Oleg,
I will show you how reproduce 2 & 3
I spent about a day to figure out what is going wrong but I found it. I don't know WHY it happens but you are the one who can / must solve this.
Here it is:
At this point I accept any workarounds or whatever you can think of to solve these problems.
btw what about issue 1. What style do I have to set?

hi aaron,
yeah long time no see. i have tried the attached sample and honestly i cant figure out why it is acting that way. i have never tried however using the native vb menu in conjunction with the cj commandbars. if it is not a lot of work for you then i would suggest you rewrite you whole menu using the cj commands. again, however, i dont think you would do that, would you? :) |

Hi Aaron,
If you are desperate for a workaround for the issue in your sample, here's an ugly one:
The in your first menu item (the one that will be clicked when the form is activated), add this code at the start of the Click event sub:
Basically, the code shows & clicks the first menu item (which gets ignored by the Click event the first time). Seems to work, but you will get an ugly flicker of the menu when the form first appears. While not a great solution, it could be useful as a (hopefully very) temporary workaround. |

Hi Jason,
Thanks for reply. I have tried to do that also but in some way this didn't work for me.
I just added it in my original project and it crashed. In the test project it works. I will check this again in the morning and maybe I can use this and in the meantime CJ can find a fix for this.
Thanks

It's possible that the crash happens with 12.0.1 and not 12.0.2 (I forgot to update my signature after I upgraded to 12.0.2)...

Hi,
Aaron, just don't use such trick. Create menu and context menu with code.

Hi,
After several days of trying and a lot annoying things came to my attention, there's a light at the end of the tunnel I'm glad it turned out OK for me. There are a few things that could be improved but what the heck, I have what I want and this time I only added new version of SkinFrameWork to my project. Let this be a lesson for all of us... communicate is best solution to all problems
If someone wants the same forget all issues and just add V12.1.0 SkinFrameWork control
Thanks a lot CJ
