DocumentTabForegroundNormalBrushKey Not Respected - Docking/MDI for WPF Forum

Posted 14 years ago by Jim Strav

Version: 9.2.0514

Platform: .NET 3.5

Environment: Windows Vista (32-bit)

I am creating a custom skin/theme for my application. I never set the ActiproSoftware.Windows.Themes.ThemeManager.CurrentTheme, so it remains null. I also tried setting it to Custom.

The brush DocumentTabForegroundNormalBrushKey cannot be overriden. The other 2 I've overriden work. The DocumentTabForegroundNormalBrushKey remains the default Black instead of the color White I've specified.

These work:


    <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static adt:DockingCommonDictionary.DocumentTabBackgroundNormalBrushKey}" 
                     Color="Black" />
    <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static adt:DockingCommonDictionary.DocumentTabBorderNormalBrushKey}" 
                     Color="Gray" />

This doesn't work:


    <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static adt:DockingCommonDictionary.DocumentTabForegroundNormalBrushKey}" 
                     Color="White" />

Hi Jimmy,

Thanks, our template didn't seem to be using that brush where it should have. We've corrected the problem for the next maintenance release.

The problem still occurs initially. I'll send my sample app. Eventually the tab foreground does respect the color, but you have to either toggle the theme or move the tab to force it to refresh.

I'm having a similar issue on DocumentWindow, but with TabForegroundSelected . It's not using any color I give it. Instead it using TabForegroundNormal all the time.
