Mugen Posted September 6, 2023 Posted September 6, 2023 Thanks Andreik, this make things much easier. Can you give an example about what's wrong on Windows 11?
Andreik Posted September 6, 2023 Posted September 6, 2023 The main functionalities are intact but I encountered few things that are broken in Win 11 like ribbon background color. I am not sure if this was broken in Win 10 also (I need to test that) but it definitely worked in Win 8.
Mugen Posted September 6, 2023 Posted September 6, 2023 Yeah, I noticed this. At the time MS added dark mode to Windows 10 the color option no longer works. You limited to light or dark theme.
Andreik Posted September 6, 2023 Posted September 6, 2023 In Windows Ribbon Framework there are nothing like light or dark theme because it's not theme oriented but UI_PKEY_GlobalBackgroundColor property that controls the ribbon background color. This could be set in previous Windows versions and it was just fine but at least in Windows 11 this doesn't work anymore and there is not any official explanation for this.
Mugen Posted September 6, 2023 Posted September 6, 2023 Yes, they stop documenting. But reverse engineers found UI_PKEY_DarkModeRibbon witch properly replace UI_PKEY_GlobalBackgroundColor.
Andreik Posted September 6, 2023 Posted September 6, 2023 (edited) If you have any link or documentation please post and I will take a look. Anyway, it's very strange to break a functionality without keeping it at least as a legacy. Edited September 6, 2023 by Andreik
