 Topic: Ribbon frame error in Windows 7Posted: 26 January 2010 at 5:04pm |

Windows 7 (64-bit, Aero) Ultimate. XTP 13.2.1. Just ran my ribbon application for the first time, and noticed a GUI glitch.
When I show my about dialog this strange blue line becomes visible on the main frame. It will stay there until I resize the window:

No news regarding this? Showing a modal dialog in Windows 7 Aero always produces this artifact...
Surely, some repaint-message is needed somewhere in your code.

We previously had issues with the ribbon not updating correctly (underlying windows menu bar would bleed thru). I had to strategically place this code:
pMainFrame->RecalcLayout(); JCXTPRibbonBar* pRibbon = pMainFrame->GetRibbonBar(); if( pRibbon ){ pRibbon->Redraw(0,FALSE); }
Can't tell from your image if you are using a ribbon so you might just have to call RecalcLayout. The pain is determining just when/where to make the extra call.

This is indeed a ribbon application. I cannot reproduce this problem with the Ribbon Sample :(
It seems an empty rectangle is drawn immediately when the about dialog goes modal. The rectangle is drawn on the center of the file button and all the way to the right side of the main window. The glitch goes away after a resize. This only happens with Aero enabled...

I don't know if this is the problem, or part of it, but Aero does not like applications that draw directly on the desktop DC.

Hmm, don't see this problem in the Ribbon sample. I think I have to contact support on this one. It could have something to do with the docking pane manager...
Anyway, thanks for your help.
