[Bug]: Ribbon Form Bars are no longer Drawn with the theme colouring about standard-toolkit HOT 24 CLOSED

Where those apps the 4.4 versions or the V8 versions ?

4.x versions from https://github.com/ComponentFactory/Krypton/tree/master/Bin

from standard-toolkit.

I'll get back to you... Does XP support 4.6.2?

No.
Perhaps Check with V5/6 ?

from standard-toolkit.

Going to test with v5.400 (.NET Framework 4)

@Wagnerp - Thanks for the research

So I see the Aero "Bing Turned off",
But looking at the Outlook clone in Windows 8.1 - That is what i was expecting to happen regardless of the OS.

What I am seeing is when something similar to the "It goes berserk" for some instances of border style being applied to current alpha and windows 10.

So the "Bug Stands"; Make it work like the Win 8.1 outlook clone regardless of OS ! i.e

• Themed Title bar
• Visible Borders
• No Aero
• No Berserk mode drawing ;-)

Re: Last comment, I wonder what would happen if you did this?

    case < 6:
    case 10:
      return false;
   case < 10
       ....

More Info:

Changing this does not do Anything !

I suspect that it is "Stuck" to be true in the code somewhere !

Contextual Tab colouring in the Form Bar still Works:

@Smurf-IV This was a Windows 7 aero thing, so from Windows 8 and up are also affected.

from standard-toolkit.

The screenshots are from Win 10 22H2 x64, so I expect the theme to be applied to the Form Bar !

This might be a version checking thing. If I remember correctly, if you ran it in XP, the theme would apply to the title bar as well. I need to go back to Phil's original 2017 version & fire up a XP, Vista & 7 VM to check this...

Works as expected in XP

Vista...

7...

A setting might be stuck

So what happens when running the V8 versions on the same Os's as above ?
And What about V4.4 on Win 10 / 11 ?

It goes berserk when the classic theme is applied

@Smurf-IV This is how Office looks if no Aero is applied

2007

2010

For 10/11 should it act the same, as I don't think that WinForms supports Mica etc?

from standard-toolkit.

That's a lot better, but that's not on win 10 or above is it ?

I'm not "Concerned" about the lack of Transparency (i.e. Aero per se) but about the theme being applied to the Form And borders when in ribbon mode for >= Win 8

from standard-toolkit.

but that's not on win 10 or above is it ?

No, it's the default if you choose the classic theme on Win Vista & 7. It would work well on 10/11, I think 'Aero' is controlled in the General > DesktopWindowManager class, maybe this:-

 /// <summary>
        /// Is composition currently enabled for the desktop.
        /// </summary>
        public static bool IsCompositionEnabled
        {
            get
            {
                switch (Environment.OSVersion.Version.Major)
                {
                    // Desktop composition is only available on Vista upwards
                    case < 6:
                        return false;
                    case < 10:
                        // Ask the desktop window manager is composition is currently enabled
                        return PI.Dwm.IsCompositionEnabled();
                    //Win 10
                    default:
                        return UserSystemPreferencesService.IsTransparencyEnabled;
                }
            }
        }

@Smurf-IV PR incoming

from standard-toolkit.

@Smurf-IV Can we just make AllowFormIntegrate a Win 7/8 & 8.1 thing?

from standard-toolkit.

@Wagnerp Or remove it, as it does not make sense for a theme not to be applied !

@Smurf-IV Might raise it as a new request, as I don't know how deep the feature goes
