Ribbon Form - Borders of MDI child windows are incorrectly painted if certain skins are applied

created 11 years ago

Hello,
 I have a skinned MDI ribbon app with child windows. The special thing here is that the child windows are all of different purposes, so they need to have their own ribbons.
When I set any skin different to Office2013 skin, then the ribbon child window looks quite ugly. If the child window does not have a ribbon (like this is the case in your skins demo…), then eveything is painted correctly.
See appended screenshot. Left is the ribboned client, right the one without ribbon, with Office2010.
Is there any workaround or is this a bug?
Thanks Stephan

    Hello,
    Would you please clarify what exact elements you consider painted incorrectly? Please mark these elements on your image.

      I think this is obvious… Apparently not for you…
      See the markings. There are missing border lines everywhere. This varies with the skins. But with every skin except 2013 there is something missing.
