My apologies. I completely forgot that there was a destroy parameter. It is amazing how difficult it is to remember my own code. It's possible that the letting RemoveForm destroy the window for you is causing OI's Presentation Server to not be not…
-
RemoveForm only removes the form from the panel, but it does not close the window. Have you tried calling Close_Window on the form after calling RemoveForm?
-
Colin, When you call SetForm, are you setting both the FitWidth and FitHeight parameters to 1? If so, then the panel is doing what it's supposed to (simply resizing the OI form for fit within the panel), but it is relying on OI to resize the contro…

I might actually be able to add this in the next release since I am in the process on revamping the mouse handling logic as we speak. In the meantime, you can consider Don's suggestion above. Just so it's said out loud, that menu is incredible! Gre…

SRP Panel Control 2.0.2 and SRP Controls Pro 3.0.6 are now available for download. The update includes the new RemoveCtrls method.
-
There is a new release for the controls coming within the next day or two, and that update includes a RemovCtrls method for the SRP Panel Control. I'll let you know when the download is available.

My sincere apologies. I dropped the ball on this. I can't recreate it using SRPControls.ocx 3.2. In my test, I have the Ribbon on an MDI frame, and I load two existing forms into the Backstage. When I close the frame, everything closes as expected.…

Replied to other post. I'll keep the conversion going there so it's all in one place.

You can now download step-by-step instructions on how to force 32-bit color depth on Win 2008 Terminal Server here.
-
After a lot of work, we think we have the issue narrowed down. You need your Terminal Server to run in 32-bit color depth for the ribbon to render correctly. This has to do with how tightly coupled the WinAPI's image routines are to the device's cap…

The SRP Controls are all ActiveX controls written in Visual C++.
-
Download 3.2.1 RC1 (here) and see if that works better for you.
-
I dropped the ball on this issue as well, it seems. Please forgive me. I am able to recreate the issue and will look into a fix today.
-
The latest build is 3.2 RC6. Try downloading and registering it again.
-
Colin, I emailed you a link.
-
No worries. I actually spent today working on this and think I have it all corrected. There's a lot of code that tries to undo what OI does automatically when the form's caption and border metrics are altered. I'll let you know when a new beta build…
-
Some clarification questions: What version of OI? Does this only happens in the Form Designer, at Runtime, or both?
-
What do you mean by "add a Smallicon to the backstage"? In my test, if I specify both LargeIcon and SmallIcon in the SAVEITEM command, then the small one is used in the backstage.
SmallIcon=".\Bmps\Ribbo… -
Does this work?
Whenever a command is "spotted" in the XML, it becomes available to reference anywhere else below that. So, assuming you are creating the backstage button second, you should be able to just … -
Does it help to set the ribbon's redraw property 0 before setting all these properties and then setting it back to 1 afterwards?
-
Is this edittable (which I assume is an SRP edittable) on the same form as the ribbon, or is it on an MDI child while the ribbon is on an MDI frame? When is the above code called? What triggers it?
-
Thanks for the catch. This will be working correctly upon relelase.
-
I can understand the need for it to close automatically in that case, but I can also think of cases where a QuickAccessControl button might want to leave the backstage up, such as an Open button. In that case, if the backstage closed automatically, …
-
There is another build available. Please let me know if there are any lingering bugs. New features will be put on hold until after we get the 1.0 version released. Download it here.
-
Okay, I finally found out what was causing it to behave like a dialog, so that will be fixed upon next release. As for your comment that clicking outside the backstage should close it: I don't see that behavior at all in Office 2013. The backstage s…
-
I presume you want an event that allows you to show a custom tooltip rather than the simplified built-in ones. As much as I want to give you that feature, it's not quite so simple as I would have to updated every single control to support this featu…
-
I've been delayed in responding because I went ahead an implemented a way to dynamically add new things to the ribbon during runtime. It is still the case that you only call Init once. When you want to add stuff, you can use one of several new metho…
-
Don is correct. You can't close windows during an OLE event because you end up destroying the OLE control while it's the middle of an event. The solution, as you've confirmed, is to post a close event so the OLE's event can finish first.
-
Double clicking the circle is supposed to close the window, yes. Think of the big circle as the form's main icon. In fact, this answers your first questions. The icon that appears in that circle is the icon you set on the form in the Form Designer. …

Can you copy your XML setup for these groups? I do not see the captions disappearing for me at all.
