We’re doing some quick testing running our applications on Vista…
The SmartUI controls seem to be having difficulties displaying; has anyone else seen this?
The controls work just fine (they’re there and respond to input), but either do not display/paint properly, or simply do not display.
Thanks for any input!

One thing I found with help from the Xceed team is you can programatically force the SmartUI to use the Classic skins in the UI. It’s kind of ugly and doesn’t really fit with the Vista skins, but at least it works.
Another thing is to change the font colors. For some reason if you use the default “ControlText”, it won’t display.
I just forced the UI to use a set color, and it came through on Vista. Here is the code I used where “outMain” is the SmartExplorerTaskPane.
‘Set the ClassicView of the UI for Vista Compatibility
Me.outMain.UIStyleResourceAssembly = Nothing
Me.outMain.UIStyle = Xceed.SmartUI.UIStyle.UIStyle.WindowsClassic‘Declare Count Variables
Dim iGroupCount As Integer
Dim iTaskCount As Integer‘Set The Font Color For the SmartUI
Try
‘Set The Group Text Color
For iGroupCount = 0 To outMain.Items.Count – 1
outMain.Items.Item(iGroupCount).ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue‘Set The Task Color
For iTaskCount = 0 To outMain.Items.Item(iGroupCount).Items.Count – 1
outMain.Items.Item(iGroupCount).Items.Item(iTaskCount).ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue
NextNext
Catch ex As Exception
‘Do nothing, I don’t want to throw an error
End TryAlso see <a href=”http://doc.xceedsoft.com/products/smartuiNet/doc/sources/styles.htm”>http://doc.xceedsoft.com/products/smartuiNet/doc/sources/styles.htm</a>
Hope this helps!
