Ribbon Form - In Windows XP, switching between skinned MDI child windows using Ctrl+Tab displays background windows if merging is enabled and the SupportNonClientDrawing property of the Ribbon control residing on the MDI child windows is set to False

created 12 years ago

Hi to everyone,
I think there's a graphic problem while trying to switch from an MDIChild form to another (Using CTRL+TAB).
It happens while application is using a TdxSkinController, as you can see in attached example.
Application's main form disappears for a few milliseconds and you can see windows that are running behind application's forms.
 Could you tell me something to do in order to avoid that problem?
(I'm using CodeGear Delphi 2007, Windows XP 32 bit and devexpress build v2012 vol 2.4)
Thanks.

    Hello,
    Thank you for your report. I have reproduced the described behavior with Windows XP (on Windows 7 the demo behaves as expected) and forwarded this ticket to our developers for research.
