UI Apperance - Backgrounds - change from code SOLVED

[zarkogajic]

Hi Support,

How can I change the background style from code, as in:

I've tried via IUIX_ObjImpl for IPXV_DocumentViewsArea and e_Render and IUIX_RenderContext and FillUpdateRegion, but the result is not how it should be (not because of the selected color ):

Code: Select all

PDFXEdit.IUIX_RenderContext pRC = (PDFXEdit.IUIX_RenderContext)System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetObjectForIUnknown((IntPtr)pEvent.Param1);
pRC.FillUpdateRegion((int)0xFF00FF, false);

If I use

Code: Select all

pRC.FillUpdateRegion((int)0xFF00FF, TRUE); // no change at all?

What's wrong with that code?

Also, how do I specify the style/pattern?

Hi Support,

I've played a bit .. what I actually need is:

IUIX_Theme.SetColor('main.bg', $FFFFFF, false);

BUT not globally!

Only for a particular MainFrame / IPXV_DocumentViewsArea.

Can this be done?

Hello zarkogajic,

Changing the Theme colors result in changing of the whole UI of the Application as the theme is one for all - not just one frame. Though changing the Theme is a correct way of doing what you want.

Hi Alex,

Thanks. I need this (some "look" change) for only one Frame/View/DocView/PagesView.

I've tried changing the Obj.Style property for IPXV_DocumentViewsArea/IPXV_DocumentView/IPXV_PagesView by including UIX_ObjStyle_NoBackground/UIX_ObjStyle_NoInnerShadow - but no change in rendering.

Is there any way, using some style value (or something else), to somehow change the look of at least the IPXV_PagesView ?

So, anything that would change the look of the PagesView background:

?

Hi Alex,

Seems like IPXV_PagesView::RegisterDrawCallback does the trick

With nStage set to PXV_PagesViewDraw_AfterBackground, and this code in OnDrawPagesView: prc.FillUpdateRegion($FEFEFE, false); the result:
